Grandmimi's Kisses Linda Stroud

A sweet story that speaks to the special bond that exists between a grandparent and a child, Grandmimi's Kisses tells the story of the magic that happens at Grandmimi's house when a grandchild comes a long way for a much-anticipated visit. There is a cheerful flag that announces the child's arrival: "Grandkids Spoiled Here!" And, after the child is wrapped in a big hug from Grandmimi, the fun begins, starting with the child guessing in which of Grandmimi's hands is a delicious chocolate kiss (the child always guesses right!). The child cannot wait until bedtime at Grandmimi's house, because each night the Chocolate Kiss Fairy comes and leaves a surprise under the child's pillow. Grandmimi says, "As long as you believe, the Chocolate Kiss Fairy will always come."



Most importantly, there are lots of rules: The answer is always YES; No naps allowed; Always eat outside; Eat ice cream sandwiches for breakfast; You must go to the toy store at least once; Dinner is served in the hot tub; Expect endless hugs and chocolate kisses!



At the close of the visit, the child is wrapped in one of Grandmimi's wonderful, warm hugs, a chocolate kiss guess is made (the child is right, again!), and on the way home, the child smiles at the special visit and also wonders if the Chocolate kisses Fairy has hidden kisses for the child to discover. The child can't wait to see Grandmimi again (maybe she will come to visit!). Filled with incredible love and memories that will last a lifetime, Grandmimi's Kisses will warm your heart and make every child long for a trip to Grandmimi's house, with special rules, chocolate kisses, and a fairy to believe in.
