Description
Alvina's two grannies are a source of love and joy in her life. Grannie Vero hails from the Caribbean island of Trinidad, while Grannie Rose comes from the north of England. When Alvina's parents are away on holiday, both grannies move in to look after her. However, their different backgrounds and traditions lead to some amusing clashes. Grannies Vero and Rose want to do things their own way, which causes them to get crosser and crosser with each other. As Alvina tries to find a way to bring her grannies together, she comes up with a clever solution. This heartwarming story celebrates the importance of family, friendship and finding common ground. With its gentle tone and engaging storyline, it's a great choice for anyone looking for a story about the power of love and understanding.
