Mummy Misses Grandma

Let's talk about aging - a gentle book for the whole family

Mummy misses Grandma. I heard her tell her friend this morning. But we only saw Grandma yesterday. Where did Grandma go?

Told through a child's eyes, this gentle story helps young readers understand what it means when a grandparent grows older and moves somewhere new, why feelings can be complicated, and why Grandma is still Grandma, even when things look different.

With warm, honest conversation and beautiful illustration, Mummy Misses Grandma opens the door to important chats about aging, change and family love, making it a comforting read for children navigating a grandparent's changing needs.
