The relationships we form in life are important to our well-being. Parker and Grandpa John is the story of one of these special relationships: the strong bond between a grandfather and grandson. It doesn't matter what activity they are doing as long as they are together. Parker has a grandfather who will teach him all the wonderful things he knows about life, and Grandpa John enjoys the unconditional love of his grandson.
"I could just feel the love between Parker and his grandfather as I journeyed through each page with them! My grandpa was named John as well, and it brought me back to all the sweets we shared and the fun times we spent together throughout my childhood. This book really captures the importance of a grandparent's love. What a great read!"- Chelsea Romano, mother of three and a homeschool teacher
"Mrs. Bonn's second book is even better than the first one! This feel-good story will warm everyone's hearts. I wish I could be one of the characters! The sweet relationship between a grandparent and a grandchild is celebrated well." - Kathy Bridges, librarian"I love the premise of the book-there is nothing better than the love between grandparents and grandchildren. Grandpas can teach little boys so much in this day and age. This book shows this special bond and should be passed down for generations."- Debi Bowman, Sr. Manager, distribution support, Genuine Parts Company
"Parker and Grandpa John is a wonderful story reflecting the simpler times of childhood. It flawlessly captures the pure joy present while spending a summer day with one's grandfather. Parker is blissfully unaware of how much this time means to Grandpa, and Grandpa treasures each moment while it lasts. I am certain this will be a bedtime staple and timeless classic." - Katie Macaulay, inside sales representative
"Jen captures the special bond between grandparents and young grandchildren. Grandpa John fosters joy and playfulness in Parker's world as much as Parker keeps Grandpa John young at heart. There is just something beautiful and universal in the images Jen creates. I will definitely give this sweet book to my husband to read with our own grandson!"- Donna Wood, English teacher
