About this ebook
They are a diverse group. They have come to grandma-hood from different places -- different parts of the world, different ages, different cultures. And they have had different grandma experiences. Some live near or with their grandchildren. Some live far away. Among them, they have young grandchildren and adult grandchildren. Yet they share a common bond: to be the best grandmas they can be and to pass on a little bit of themselves.
They share their stories.
