About this listen

Spend the day with a grandma and granddaughter in this charming picture book, adapted for audio, about the magic found in their favorite accessory - a perfect gift this Mother's Day!

When Grandma Mimi comes to visit, she always brings warm hugs, sweet treats...and her purse. You never know what she'll have in there - fancy jewelry, tokens from around the world, or something special just for her granddaughter. It might look like a normal bag from the outside, but Mimi and her granddaughter know that it's pure magic!

In this adorable, energetic ode to visits from grandma, Vanessa Brantley Newton shows how an ordinary day can become extraordinary.

Critic reviews

A Chicago Public Library Best of the Year selection

"A heartfelt homage to brown girls and their wonder-inducing grandmothers." (Horn Book)

"Brantley-Newton creates a whimsical interplay of patterns, rich color, and her trademark lively expressions - a beautiful visual mélange. The magic of grandparents is undeniable, and this book is an excellent treat for grandkids to share with their own grandmas and grandpas, or the other way around." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Brantley-Newton's vividly colorful images paint the happiness the little girl feels in her grandmother's presence. A strong intergenerational choice for any picture book collection." (SLJ)
