In this funny and heartwarming picture book, a grandfather shows his love and appreciation for a grandmother as he persuades her to attend a local dance with him. Grandfather is tending his garden when a loudspeaker announces a dance in the local park. He asks Grandmother to join him, but she has many reasons to delay their outing: she needs to put eyeliner around her eyes--which are as sad as a moonless night--and color in her hair--which is as gray as an autumn cloud. Grandfather counters with loving arguments of his own: her sad eyes look like stars and her hair is as perfect and white as a summer cloud. Playful illustrations complement this touching banter, which culminates in a trip to the dance where Grandmother tells Grandfather, "You are as pretty as the moon."

4/5🌟This was such a sweet and heartwarming picture book! Grandpa is out in his garden when he hears there will be a dance that night. He then lovingly convinces Grandma to go with him even though at first she doesn't feel young and pretty enough anymore to go out dancing. The illustrations were beautifully done also, very cheerful and whimsical. Out tomorrow!
