Synopsis

Grandmothers have played essential roles for countless years in families of a myriad of communities and cultures. In Grandma's Hand Me Downs, the author takes time to pay tribute to his maternal grandmother by highlighting fifteen of her sayings that she would often say to him as he was growing up. With every saying, the author tells the story behind each, along with the messages conveyed, lessons learned, and an accompanying poem. As the stories are told, the author invites readers to remember and cherish the sayings of old as inspiration to keep moving forward.
