Poor quality, missing pages , ripped

Wow... this is NOT good condition... bought this for my dad at Christmas so he has books to read to his new grandson.. I had to tape most the pages and will just have to apologize for the ones missing half the page...

Bought this book for my dad and father-in-law to tell them that my husband and I were finally pregnant. They loved it and my father-in-law actually thought I was giving it to him to read to my nephew at first until my mother-in-law asked if we were pregnant. Great gift for telling parents that they are going to be GRANDparents.

I Love You, Grandpa

My Husband and I are 25 years old and Grandpa is in his 80's. We bought this for him as an extra gift and I'm so happy with it. The meaning behind it (Even if it is a children's book) Is fantastic and he absolutely loved it. It's not a typical gift he would ever receive so I am glad he read through it and now keeps it on display for when his great grandchildren come around to visit.

Timely story-- Especially for growing older

This is one of the cutest stories I've ever read! I love the way the grandpa bear adapted to being older and no longer able to do things like he used to. In its simple way, it shows that grandparents can still can teach their grandkids quite a bit-- and that the young ones can always learn from them!

I purchased “I love you Daddy” & “I love you Grandpa”.

I purchased “I love you Daddy” & “I love you Grandpa” this year to celebrate our first Father’s Day for our one month old son. I thought it would be a great idea to purchase something that would create a great bonding experience with both father, grand father and son.

but in my opinion it could easily work as a gift between grandpa and granddaughter

I bought this as a gift for my dad. I think it mentions that the baby bear is a boy, but in my opinion it could easily work as a gift between grandpa and granddaughter, too. It is a sweet story with endearing illustrations.

That all families feel love

This book let our grandsons see their grandpa in another way. It was well written and kept the attention of a 4 and 7 yr old boys.

Great book/gift for Pap Pap, making memories that are sentimental - forever.

The kiddos got this book for Pap pap on Father's Day and each wrote little notes inside. The book is very cute and the sentimental meaning behind it will last a long time! Every time he comes over he brings the book and is able to read it with the kids making memories that will last forever.

Cute gift for Papa

We got this book as a gift to my father in law from my son who is only 15 months old. The bond they both share is something so special, so this book was surely fitting and papa really enjoyed the book too and has it displayed on his curio cabinet at his home.

Gd gift 👍

Love, love, love, my son gave it to his grandfather has a birthday gift. Its better than a birthday greetings card. His grandfather love it. They both read together

Cutest Story

I loved reading this book. It has a cute story line and graphics. Could be a good announcement gift for grandparents. Thats what I bought mine for!

Great fathers day gift

Cutest book for grandson and grandpa! Great storyline and the colors and illustrations are perfect. A must buy for the upcoming fathers day

Such a cute story!

This is wonderful quality for the price point. Great illustrations, cute story, and a heartwarming gift for new grandparents. It's pretty large, easy to read and turn the pages.

Great way to remember a grand parent

Purchased both books of this series to donate to local library as memorials for special people. Kids love them!

Exactly as described

The book is hardback and feels of a decent quality. Picture color and wording is clear and pleasing to the eye. Overall, we’re satisfied with the book and would recommend it to another.

Grandpa is loved too

Wonderful book to highlight the bond of a grandfather. My grandchildren are 5 and 3. They love to have the story read to them.

Cute book with nice pictures

Grandson isn't quite two, so we don't read the entire book in one sitting. He likes the pictures and enjoys the time.

Love this book.

The best quality and cutest for grandparents to read to little kids. About 15 words a page.

Very cute

Very cute book. Colorful illustrations and good quality. I hope my baby will like it

Gift for the 'soon-to-be' grandpa in your life!

Purchased as a surprise for my dad, to let him know he'd be a grandpa soon. Such a sweet book & made a great reveal gift!

Perfect

Precious book. Cannot wait to give it to my father (from my son) for Christmas

Sweet story

Sweet story, and great gift. My brother is a grampa, and it made him smile.

Okay

Story could have been better but nice gift idea for grandpa and he can keep to read with grandbabies

Sentimental gift

This was the cheapest of the Christmas presents I got for my dad (my son’s grandfather) but it was the most sentimental and special to him. So excited for him to spend nights reading this to my son and soon enough for my son to read it to him!

Love it

I gave this to my dad to read to my son for Father’s Day. It’s really cute.

Perfect book

Especially perfect if your papa fishes and hunts with your child.

Great Christmas gift.

Bought this for my grandfather at Christmas. He loved it, and asked me to inscribe it. Even though I'm in my 20s, it had a great sentimental value for him.

So cute

I love these books. I’m only missing the “I Love You Daddy” book. Great for storytime, and the pictures keep my son’s interest.

Such a sweet book

Grand got teary eyed reading it. Super sweet

Grandpa gift!

Perfect for Grandpa to read to grandchildren! It is a gift that will last a lifetime!

So sweet

They need to make one for grandmas I loved this book.

This will make old men cry.

We gave this book to my father-in-law at our baby shower. My husbands family rarely makes shows of emotion or affection, but I saw tears in his eyes and after we left him with the book he read the entire thing immediately. It's the perfect book for a grandpa and baby!

Great gift!

Sweet little book

Very sweet book for our grandson who is just under age 2. He loves books and although this is a bit old for him, he will 'grow' into the story in the not too distant future. Lovely pictures and sentiment. Highly recommend for anyone who is a parent or grandparent. I bought grandma and grandpa for 'our' baby.

I bought 2 for each of my son's Grandpas and in one of the books, the story was upside down so it didn't match the direction of the cover... super annoying.
