Granny is a Rockstar

A moving and uplifting story that sensitively explores memory loss, told through Issy Emeney's heartfelt rhyming text and brought to life through Sandhya Prabhat's rich illustrations.

Bonnie and Gran are best friends and they have lots of fun together. And one day, when Bonnie and Gran are playing dressing up, Bonnie finds some funky clothes, all made of shiny leather. "Granny, when did you wear THOSE?!" she exclaims. As it turns out, Gran used to be a ROCKSTAR in a super cool ROCK BAND called The Pearls! But then, Gran starts forgetting things and sometimes feels grumpy or very quiet. Bonnie knows that although Gran's brain is playing tricks, Gran still loves her just the same.

Then one day the doorbell rings, and who do you think is there?! Some ladies dressed in leather with loads of whizzy hair - it's The Pearls! Can the power of music and friends remind Gran of the past? And will Bonnie get to see Gran as the rockstar she's always been?

Filled with warmth and gentle humour, Granny is a Rockstar taps into music's ability to bring back memories for those with dementia as well as the close bond between child and grandparent. The ideal companion alongside books like The Forgettery, The Tide and Remember When. . .
