MY REVIEW: Grandparents are the best storytellers--especially when they are telling family stories from long ago or spending time having fun and making new memories. Author Scarlet Paolicchi has created "Sharing Stories, Making Memories: A Journal for Grandparents and Grandchildren", a fun little keepsake journal to record memories and experiences from both the past and the present. Designed in a user-friendly format, the book features simple, soft-colored illustrations that give it a light-hearted, happy feel. There are a few pages for drawing, but most of the pages are lined for answering the prompts and questions preprinted on the page. For each exercise, there is a page for the grandchild and a page for the grandparent. The pages face each other, so it's easy to compare what each generation has to say. When the book is filled, it will make an interesting family history, and it may encourage more creative memory sharing throughout family members. There is also a "Family Tree" with space to record from great-grandparents down through the parents and siblings of the child writing in the journal.
