An offbeat look at modern-day grannies that is bound to elicit a chuckle or two.
Encyclopedia of Grannies
$29.99
A funny, funky book full of word play, answering all your questions about grandmas—especially the ones you never thought to ask.
Translated by Daniel Hahn
Description
Why do grandmas tell us to speak slowly? Why do grandmas wear their hair up? Are grandmas flexible? How do you cheer grandmas up? Eric Veillé explains it all with wit and charm—how they wear their hair, how they do yoga, how they travel the world, their wise sayings, their knitting.

‘The Most Astonishingly Unconventional Children’s Books of 2019’
Veillé is no stranger to this list (with 2017’s My Pictures After the Storm), but in terms of sheer oddness, this one blows his previous work out of the water. It’s a completely bonkers, gleefully silly guide to grandmothers of all stripes.
