Grandparents

  • Falk, Ursula Adler
  • Falk, Gerhard

“What image comes to mind when we hear the word “grandparents”? Too often, it is the Norman Rockwell view of innocuous, kindly, white-haired folk or, conversely, the negative stereotype of doddering, frail, elderly persons confined to nursing homes. Unfortunately, such notions shortchange not only older people but younger generations as well, who may never realize how much grandparents have to offer. This informative, well-researched volume adds much-needed perspective and depth to the stick-figure images of grandparents promulgated by contemporary culture.”
“This thought-provoking book stresses that grandparents must be seen as individuals with their own lives and interests–and should serve as a springboard for a much-needed reassessment of the value of the elderly.”
