Dear Grandpa
By Kate Simpson
Illustrated by Ronojoy Ghosh
For ages 4+
Henry lives 2,003 kilometres from his grandpa – that’s longer than all the world’s blue whales placed end to end and as uncatchable as a goodnight kiss on a shooting star. But Grandpa knows that even from a long distance, love can be closer than you think.
Perfect for Father’s Day, especially for those families who are separated by distance, Dear Grandpa celebrates the bond between grandpa and grandson.
Dear Grandpa was long-listed for Picture Book of the Year, Australia 2020.
‘Every page in this picture book is a delight.’ — Good Reading Magazine
‘Perfect for all those kids missing a faraway dad or grandfather.’ — Herald Sun

Why picture books?
Picture books cover a diverse range of topics, expose children to words and language they might not hear normally in conversation, and teach children how reading works (left to right, top to bottom). While picture books might be too hard for early readers to read by themselves at first, the books are not too hard to understand. Reading picture books with your child will inspire them to learn to read on their own, and experience the pleasure of reading.
