Description

At Nan's place there are so many marvellous things, earrings and bracelets, and glittering rings. But most special of all are Nan's spare kisses, always ready for let-downs and misses. A warm-hearted celebration of the endless supply of love (and treats!) that grandmothers have for their grandchildren.

Eve's Nan has lots of spares. A spare key in her pot plant for after-school drop-ins. Seats at the table for morning tea pop-ins. A collection of teacups in all shapes and sizes. And always, yes, always, delicious surprises. Most special of all are Nan's spare kisses that make everything right.

From CBCA award-winning author Pip Harry and illustrator Yiscah Marcatili.
