Book - Child
"Dr. Ruth K. Westheimer believes in strong ties. Deprived of both her parents and her grandparents at an early age, Dr. Ruth has spent most of her life forging solid relationships and teaching others to do the same. Here she encourages kids to reinforce the unique bond between children and grandparents. First, says Dr. Ruth, treasure your grandparents, because they can enrich your lives immeasurably. She counts the ways. Second, take advantage of your grandparents. Dr. Ruth insists that they want to do whatever they can for you. Third, take care of your grandparents. Dr. Ruth offers specific suggestions for helping grandparents and showing appreciation. Dr. Ruth understands that kids have different relationships with grandparents who live nearby and with those who live far away, with older and younger grandparents, with those who are part of an intact family and those who've been affected by divorce. Of course she realizes that there are kids who don't have grandparents." -From the Publisher
