A Grandma Storybook Recommendation — Growing Close to Grandparents
My child who feels shy at Grandma's house
When you visit Grandma's for a holiday or vacation, she welcomes them warmly, yet your child hangs back bashfully and hides behind Mom. And a question like "When are we going home?" can leave the grown-ups feeling a little hurt.
When they don't get to visit often, Grandma and Grandpa's place can feel like an unfamiliar space to your child. But with just a little shared love, that unfamiliarity turns into the fondest feeling in the world.

From a grandparents storybook to a countryside grandma's house storybook and a family storybook recommendation, we've gathered many stories around 42. Grandma's the Best — Snuggle Right In!
Why time with grandparents is so precious
Time spent with grandparents lets a child experience a 'wider love.' Being loved without limit in a way that's different from a parent's love nurtures your child's sense of emotional security.
And a countryside grandma's house is a gift of nature—garden plots, soil, ripening fruit—things hard to come by in the city. The bond that connects the generations and the experience of nature become warm memories that stay in a child's heart for a long time.
Hori's story of growing fond of the country house
In 『Grandma's the Best — Snuggle Right In!』, Hori feels awkward and glum in the unfamiliar country house. Just then Grandma hands him a steaming baked sweet potato, and Grandpa lets him pick tomatoes from the garden.
When Hori realizes they've been getting ready for him for days, his heart swells and he snuggles right into Grandma's arms. On the day they leave, he's so sad that tears spring to his eyes. Along with Hori, your child feels that 'when you share love, unfamiliarity becomes fondness.'
