Remember That

Friday evenings are special because it is the time that a young girl and her grandmother can spend together. Grandmother teaches her several important life lessons, concluding with the phrase, "remember that". As she ages, grandmother moves from her apartment, to the girl's home, and eventually to a nursing home, but the lessons continue. Written by Leslea Newman, with illustrations by Minnesota's Karen Ritz, this was a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award in 1997.
