My Two Grandads
by Floella Benjamin, Margaret Chamberlain
Age: K - 2
Heavy text filled with superfluous dialogue, combined with illustrations that begin depicting the same scenes of people talking makes for a poor children's book. Although, I like the plot, several aspects fell way short.
"Grandad Harry is from Lancashire and plays the trumpet in a brass band; Grandad Roy is from Trinidad and plays the steel drum in a steel band. Aston wants to play both these instruments, just like his grandads, and he also wants botht he grandads to bring their bands to his school summer fair. But there's a problem - only one band is needed!" (Goodreads featured review)
