Purchase options and add-ons
Grandparents’ Day is quickly approaching, and Frannie will be all alone. None of her grandparents can attend the celebration, leaving Frannie nothing but disappointed.
“What if we postponed the date by one month?”
“Maybe I can phone my grandparents that day?"
“Why don’t we share our grandparents?”
But no matter what Frannie and her friends try, nothing seems to work. If Frannie wants to enjoy Grandparents’ Day, she’ll have to think outside of herself and outside of this world.

Wonderful Children's Book with a Heartfelt Message
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2023My kids loved this sweet story about a girl whose Grandparents aren't able to attend Grandparents Day at school. Most kids can relate to this at one time or another. The author does a great job at showing how a child in this situation can work through feelings of disappointment & sadness as well as appreciation for her Grandparents even though they can't be there. The story takes a fun turn as one of the Grandparents makes a surprise "appearance." The illustrations are cute and diverse! And we especially loved the activity in the back of the book that makes this personal to each child! Highly recommend!

This Book is "Out of This World!"
Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2025What a wonderful book! Frannie is fortunate to have 4 living grandparents but none of them can make it to her school's grandparent's day celebration. Discover her emotions as she handles her disappointment. Readers of all ages will love this cute story. Through the gift of technology, we can be close, even though there might be physical miles between us. Thank you for sharing all the different names of "Grandpa" and "Grandma." This book is a "must" for every family. Be ready for lots of fun discussion.

Empowering lessons for children to solve their quandaries
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2023Loved it all. It’s a wonderful story, and an excellent message for kids and adults. Kids ARE bright and creative at coming up with solutions to everyday quandaries. It’s good to remind grownups to let their kids think of solutions. I loved how the author celebrated seniors, and recognized how cool they can be if you take the time to learn about their histories. I thought the illustrations were terrific. I hope the author has many more stories to tell in partnership with this artist!

Not your typical grandma!
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2023I'm crazy about this book! I bought it for the daughter of a friend, and I can't wait to give it to her. It has some good messages: Frannie learns that she's not the only one who has grandparents who can't attend her school's special day; she also realizes how absolutely COOL her outer-space astronaut grandmother is! I like that the grandparents are not depicted as old, but rather as vital people out there working and enjoying life. It's a really fun spin on the typical grandparent books available. There is even an interactive question-and-answer page in the back for kids to fill out. Adorable illustrations as well. I definitely recommend this book!
