The highly anticipated sequel to "When Did I Meet You
Grandma?" is here— "When Did I Meet You Grandpa?"
Who is more wonderful to a child than a grandpa? A child usually
understands that his/her parents have been there from the
beginning. On the other hand, a grandpa is often a little
more of a mystery. Where did this older version of my parents
come from? Was grandpa there from the beginning? Grandpas
come in all shapes and sizes.
"When Did I Meet You Grandpa?" is wonderfully
illustrated to depict all grandpas. A child asks the simple
question, "When did I meet you Grandpa?" setting
into motion the narrative which follows.
Some grandpas are modern and some are traditional. One thing
for sure is that all grandpas are important!
Included is a "my own Grandpa" page for a child
to record special information about his/her own grandpa.

I plan to share about the illustrations in each of my
books. As an artist, I can add meaningful elements that
don't detract from the author's story. For those of
you that purchase my "Grandpa" book, you can
find references or tributes to these personal or special
things in my life:
1. The Modesto Bee
2. I had a Boston terrier dog that died on St. Patrick's
Day
3. Star Wars and Elvis
4. I watched live on television as man first walked
on the moon
5. The author's other new book is "Drinking Fountain
Joe"
6. The X-Files
7. Star Trek
8. The author likes to have underwear in each of his
children's books . . . haha 9. Toy Story fan
10. Jerry Rice and Joe Montana
11. My daughter's sorority, Gamma Phi Beta
12. My son played football for Thomas Downey Knights
and wore #89
This is almost like "Where's Waldo"! Have
fun finding these, email
me if you have any trouble. Some are trickier than
others.
