Mabel & Sarah Jane are now 8th Graders who are Maturing but Still Mischievious,
By
This review is from: TREASURES FROM GRANDMA'S ATTIC (Paperback)
With book four comes a change in format. The book no longer has Arleta listening to stories from Grandma but rather is a story told in the voice of Grandma (Mabel) herself. Each chapter is still an individual vignette unrelated to the others, though mention is occasionally made of past events not only from previous chapters but from previous books. In this book, Mabel talks about the year she and Sarah Jane were in Grade 8 and now that they are growing up, they still manage to get themselves into scrapes from mischievousness but they are more apt to have done something wrong that sits badly on their conscience and their Christian values. This book is a little deeper in the Christian aspect as many of the stories (though certainly not all) the girls are learning where the Gospel and scripture fit into their own lives. I still think these books are laid back enough that non-Christians will accept the characters' religion as part of the story rather than feel as if it is being preached to the reader, as they are not preachy at all, simply wholesome. I really quite enjoyed this one, especially with the new format of a straight story of Mabel reminiscing about her childhood, rather than the back and forth of present to past as in the first 3 books.

Amazing Children's Book,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Treasures from Grandma's Attic (Paperback)
Arleta Richardson captures the truly unique essence of her grandmother's stories. The stories are incredibly entertaining and still present a moral lesson that is invaluable today. I first read this whole series when I was a little girl, and I read them today as a college student, and I plan on passing them onto my little girl one day.

The Grandma Fun continues,
By Michelle Law - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Grandma's Attic: Treasures From Grandma (Paperback)
I have enjoyed all the "Grandma" books in this series. This one is really for children a bit older though. It discusses crushes and such. My children are young, so we had to skip some stories.This is a great series though. --Michelle L. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

Really great teasures for your children,
By N. Record "Love good books" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Grandma's Attic: Treasures From Grandma (Paperback)
I was so glad to find these books still in print. My oldest grandaughter is 30 and she loved them. My youngest grandaughter is 7 and she begs to hear them again and again. Each story has a moral and a laugh or two. Even my grandsons have loved these stories.
