From Booklist
Lily asks her grandmother,“What do you think you’ll be when you grow up?” But she doesn’t exactly cotton to Grandma’s response that, well, she is already grown up. So, with each turn of the page, Lily suggests just what granny can be: a lady who goes to schools and frees students from lessons, or maybe an artist who paints faces (and of course Lily is the helper nearby holding Grandma’s paints). Or perhaps she could be a special doctor giving magic kisses to fix up scraped knees. The free-spirited watercolor illustrations picture the quite young-looking grandma in each new role and give a lighthearted touch to the basic text. In the too-pat ending, Grandma just wants to be a grandma as she tucks Lily into bed at night. With definite charm and an interesting premise, this would be a great gift from grandma to granddaughter or a great read-aloud in schools for Grandparents Day. Preschool-Grade 2. --Patricia Austin
