A bank robbery ... thwarted. Wedding plans ... derailed. A pie ...
missing. House guests ... entertained. Grandchildren ... loved
beyond measure. They're all part of 105-year-old Frances Genovese's
life story. This feisty Italian American great-grandmother has a
lot of wisdom to share - from the funny to the touching to the
inspirational. This book is her youngest grandson's effort to pass
Frances's collected wisdom on to his infant son. Subjects include
family tradition, food, education, duty, the value of a dollar, and
the power of laughter. Running through all of this advice is the
notion that we can't stand still - that we need to keep changing
and moving with the world around us. People of Italian American
heritage will find this material comforting and familiar.
Grandparents of any culture will be reminded of their vital role.
Adult children and grandchildren will see their favorite
grandparents in this book -- and, with any luck, they'll be
inspired to share their grandparents' values with future
generations.
