Publisher Description:
A grandfather's eye witness account of the maturation his granddaughter is turned into a novella. Grandpadat the author once again takes the readers along to experience what happens inside The Fish & Chips Shack when a six years of age child orders "crisps and a small drink for grandma " Teachable moments are never counted for granted when the Stories From The Heart of Grandpadat are shared. The Heroine is once again the granddaughter of the author and will hold the reader spellbound until the "crisps" are purchased and grandma has her small drink. Knowing when to intervene and when to keep silent is a lesson to be gained for the adult readers and teachers of this book. The anxious grandfather's wisdom was on display as a six years of age granddaughter matches wits with an adult cashier in a public restaurant. How often is this scene played out in the reality of life. Adults want our children and loved ones to have positive life experiences. How do we balance interventions versus preventions of abuse and harsh realities in the world of "customer service?" Educators may use this book to role play and allow the characters to subsitute their own words. Youth Leaders may also use this work to show strength of character by chosing the David and Goliath aspect of child versus adult. The author also allows the grandmother who never enters "The Shack" to have a major role by noting the preparation of the granddaughter for such a time as this. Additional sublime role players are the Church Family of the grandparents and their fellowship with this granddaughter. David and Goliath, Beauty and the Beast, King Kong, Esther and Mordecai are all themes to be found in this work. Love wins. Enjoy this story from the heart of Grandpadat.
