Critics Review
One of CBC Books’ Best Canadian Books of 2024 for Kids & Teens
A Starred Selection of the Canadian Children’s Book Centre’s Best Books for Kids and Teens, Spring 2025
PRAISE FOR My Grammie’s House:
“A tender tale about a home and memories filled with love and warmth.” —Kirkus Reviews
“My Grammie’s House would be an indispensable addition to any child-focused library.” —Quebec Library Association
”[T]he most personal house tour ever. Skye Ali’s illustrations brilliantly depict what had been in place, now gone, with light pink sketches of plants and picture frames, lamps and furniture. Though Grammie no longer lives in this house … the connection of child and grandmother with place is almost tangible, palpable in the cookies that were eaten, the texture of the flooring, the warmth of the sun through a window, and the comfort of a climbing tree.” —CanLit for Little Canadians
