“Grandma, grandma
Brave and tall,
Tell me a story
Of when you were small…”
It’s nighttime.
A little girl lies tucked up safely in bed, but grandma is there and she's too excited to go to sleep just yet! Can she persuade her beloved grandmother to tell her a bedtime story? Not any old story, but a tale of when grandma was a little girl too!
A wonderful tale that starts with grandma as a small child in Jamaica before she makes a long journey over the ocean... but this is only the beginning, and the little girl hears far more stories than she ever thought possible.
Inspired by true stories from the author’s family, Grandma, Grandma, Brave and Tall is a beautiful storybook that celebrates everyday resilience, overcoming adversity and the power that can be found in intergenerational family bonds.

Beautiful rhyming text that adds joy and rhythm to the story
Diverse characters which help children feel they have a valid place in the world
Sensitive portrayals of real historical events which show triumph over adversity
