'I like the way Blackshaw has incorporated many of the household furniture and objects to his own grandparents or extended family, and this is what makes the book feel authentic and genuine whilst funny and entertaining'. --The Values Bookshelf 'This is a sweet, funny story of forgiveness and recognizing what is really valuable in life'. --Armadillo Children's Magazine Some rules... and vases... were just made for breaking! This is the story of a boy who loves his grandma, but can't stand all her rules! She has rules for every room in the house - don't jump on the bed, or leave the loo seat up, or put your elbows on the table.... But there is one rule that is more important than all the others. DON'T touch the big blue and white vase. When Grandma pops to the shops, the boy does his best to follow the rules, but a terrible domino effect of errors results in the inevitable CRASH! What will Grandma say? With Grandmas you never can tell... This is a heartwarming tale about forgiving one's mistakes, and about how some rules are not quite as important as they might seem. Gorgeous pencil illustrations bring the eccentric grandma and her pattern-filled house alive.

Becoming the grandmother of twins changed Harriet Hodgson and altered her life course. According to Hodgson, we live in a fast-paced, complex time, a time when too many grandchildren are victims of bullying, Internet scams, and sexual abuse. Hodgson believes that grandmothers are needed today more than any other time in history. "Grandmas can't be passive," she declares. "Every grandma has the power to protect and guide her grandchildren and needs to tap this power." This narrative weaves Hodgson's personal story with research findings. It's packed with ideas for helping grandchildren. Hodgson's age, child development degree, life experience, teaching experience, witness to history, and extensive research converge to make this an inspiring read. Working individually and together, grandmas are changing the world. "The Grandma Force is about the power of love and the power of one." Hodgson says. "One-by-one, grandmas are standing up for grandchildren and creating a hopeful future for them."
