Summary

In a conversation with his toddler granddaughter Lucy, Grandfather explains the origin of each of the “             crinkles”              on his “             crunchy”              face: “             Every time I smiled an extra big smile, I got a wrinkle to show for it.”             Grandfather'             s memories of these happy events —              his wedding day, when his daughter (Lucy'             s mother) was born, his daughter'             s wedding day, and more —              are shown in full-spread illustrations, alternating with close-ups of Lucy on Grandfather'             s lap. Her pudgy fingers softly tracing each crease intriguingly contrast with the lined old skin on his face. Grandfather'             s newest wrinkles, of course, were acquired when he smiled so hugely on the day that Lucy was born.After hearing this sweet, simple story, children will be delighted to use Lucy'             s method to learn more about their own grandparents'              memories, and adults will view their wrinkles in a fresh new light.
