Spend St. Patrick’s Day with a Crazy Gran!
Girly and Scamp can’t imagine what has come over their once ordinary Gran after her trip to the green island of Ireland where she kissed the Blarney Stone. Whatever it is though, they sure do like it! Now Gran tells them silly stories she swears are true. When she does her chores, she twists and twirls, sings, and swirls cheerfully. But this Gran isn’t their normal Gran, and Gramps, Daddy, and Momma are worried.
​
Accompanied by the bright, lively illustrations of Elif Balta Parks, Gran Kissed the Blarney Stone is a magical, lyrical, witty tale of a Gran’s transformation, and a family’s love and acceptance.
