Janetta hasn't visited Grandaddy's farm in a whole year. She has grown and changed, and she's worried that his place has changed, too. But the most important thing about Grandaddy's place is Grandaddy himself--and he's as wonderful as ever.
"Every episode in these brief stories is pervaded with warmth, affection, and homespun, unaffected humor. A loving, serene tribute to family devotion."--Horn Book
"A great family story that will also serve as a super read-aloud."--School Library Journal (starred review)
"Griffith follows up Georgia Music and Grandaddy's Place with this equally effecting account of Janetta's first visit to her grandfather's farm in a whole year. Thoroughly endearing." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
