Silly Frilly Grandma Tillie

Reach for this book when you want to celebrate the unique, high-energy bond between children and their grandparents, or when a child is feeling anxious about a babysitter. It is a joyful antidote to the 'boring' caregiver trope, showing how play and imagination can turn an ordinary evening into an adventure. The story follows Grandma Tillie, who arrives with a trunk full of costumes and a spirit of pure whimsy. As she shifts from 'Chef Silly-Yilli' to 'Madame Frilly-Dilly,' she engages her grandchildren in a series of creative role-playing scenarios. Beyond the laughs, the book emphasizes that while play is vital, the core of the relationship is grounded in love and the comfort of a quiet bedtime routine. It is a perfect choice for kids ages 4 to 8 who love dress-up and dramatic play.
