I liked that this book took such detail with the decorations and knick knacks of each room of Grandma’s house. It really gives you the feeling of when you were younger and visited someone’s house like a relative or family friend often and there are these simple things that become special to you because of this connection. For instance, dolls in a cabinet or a china cow to pour milk from. It has a very nostalgic feel. The way it’s made also leaves a little hole open in the doorway at the end of each spread so you can see a little into the next spread (room) before flipping the page. I thought that was a really neat touch!… (meer)
