Getting to Know My Grandma John W Shattuck

GETTING TO KNOW MY GRANDMA is the first in a series of four books about getting to know your family. (Grandpa, Mom, Dad). The purpose of this book is for you or your children to get to know more about your Grandma. The book has eight to ten questions, for each stage of her life, to guide you as you ask her questions about the following stages of her life: A) BEFORE SHE STARTED SCHOOL B) ELEMENTARY SCHOOL C) JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL D) HIGH SCHOOL E) COLLEGE or CAREER TRAINING SCHOOL F) ARMED FORCES G) MEETING GRANDPA H) FIRST JOB I) GRANDMA'S LIFE WITH MY MOM / DAD J) CAREER K) RETIREMENTL) FAMILY TREE CHART This simple, easy to follow outline will be your guide in asking her a few questions that will help her recall special people, places and events in her memories, from early childhood to her adult and retirement years. I'm sure you will see a twinkle in her eyes, a smile on her face and perhaps a tear or two of joy or sadness, as she tells you about many things in her past that she hadn't thought about in years and that perhaps you didn't know about. For each section, the guide provides space to write grandma's answers and paste pictures in the section appropriate for that time in her life. You might choose to go through one or two sections at a time with grandma. (Unless she's having a good time and wants to go through more.) I hope you receive as much enjoyment and as many laughs from hearing grandma's answers to the questions as my children and I did as we went through it.
