This book follows the adventures of 2 children who go for the summer to visit their grandmother. Not your usual stuffy grandmother but one who is a character and keeps them guessing about what she will do next. It covers many summers and the novel is for youth but I have recommended it to a few of my sdult friends who have also liked this book. Will be checking to see if this author has written other books too.
