Larry is a little lamb with a larger-than-life grandmother. She talks loudly, carries a heavy sewing machine, and has big plans to take Larry to Tanzania and the South Seas when he grows up. She even has a secret handshake. It's all too much for shy little Larry--until a summer storm blows through the Lambs' valley, and Larry finds an unlikely hero in his own family. Kate and Sarah Klise's gentle tribute to the bond between child and grandparent reminds us that it often takes time for little ones to fall in love--even with those who love them the most. Grammy Lamby and the Secret Handshake is perfect for grandparents and their own little lambs.
