My Best Friend

My third granddaughter and best friend 





has published her first book and it came in at 71 in the US Best Sellers List




Proud grandfather or what? 

What I found really touching was the dedication I had no idea existed until I opened the page. Kind of makes life worthwhile.

    Well done, Giselle.

    An extraordinary young lady, who loves her Granddad and Nan very much.

    What a Blessing she is, John.

  3. Sniff...blow...sniff. That's a tearjerker for sure. It gives us all confirmation of what we have know all along. You are extraordinary and obviously Patricia is too.
    Congratulations to Giselle...and to you all.

  10. Wow! Spectacular John. Lovely girl and most lovely dedication to you and Pat. One question? Are there any of these books left on the shelf of you local bookstore? I would have bought the lot to encourage restocking. Makes lovely gifts for all friends.

    1. Thanks very much. It's a bit bigger than that, Linda, she's been approached for the Indonesian translation rights
