"Though stunning collage artwork and a surreal story, this zesty picture book celebrates imaginative thinking and the baffling wonder of words"
Part of the fresh and fun Alexander’s Questions series, Do Grannies Have Green Fingers? sees author-illustrator Fransie Frandsen draw on her experience as an art psychotherapist to deliver a picture book that’s designed to encourage parent-child communication through a blend of richly-layered artwork and a tale that showcases the weird wonder of words.
When Mummy remarks that “Granny really has green fingers” after she wins yet another gardening prize, Alexander gets to thinking — does Granny actually have green fingers? Alexander checks his own hands and can confirm that he doesn’t, and neither does Mummy or Daddy. Well, not usually, anyway…In a surreal turn of events, Daddy’s toes become green and wrinkly, Baby T becomes entirely green, while his globe-trotting auntie’s hands seem to have turned blue. But what about Granny, and what does it mean to be tickled pink, or green with envy?!
Do Grannies Have Green Fingers? is sure to spark lots of giggles and discussions about puzzling words and phrases.
