NSW Grandparents Day Storytime with Cathie Colless

About the Book My Grandma Wears Sneakers began with a desire to update the image of grandmothers in children’s books, reflecting how we live differently in 2024. The story highlights the various names grandmothers are called, their special role in children’s lives, and the beautiful relationships that often exist. Though a children’s book narrated by children, it also serves as a tribute to grandmothers, enjoyed by both young and old.
