Gustaf rode out of sight six years ago when the original publisher was sold. I have found a new publisher, Tortuga Press, which has done a splendid job of producing an edition of Super Grandpa even more beautiful than the original.

Super Grandpa now includes an audio CD featuring me reading the story, with sound effects and Swedish music in the background. The CD is the perfect accompaniment to this heartwarming story.

"Destined to be a classic children's book." --UPI Arts & Entertainment

"The crisp language and compelling pictures will keep [readers] involved in this heart-warming tale." --School Library Journal

"The audio CD is a model of just what a recorded children's book should be. I am so glad this truly wonderful book is back in print." --Daniel L. Darigan, co-author, Children's Literature: Engaging Teachers and Children in Good Reading (Prentice Hall)

“This timeless, meaningful tale will delight listeners and should be considered an essential purchase.” --School Library Journal (multimedia review)

Finer print: all books bought with free shipping will go by USPS "Media Mail" to addresses in the 50 United States. (For other countries or faster shipping, send me an email and I'll tell you the cost.)

Finest print: I cannot promise that your book(s) will be shipped right away because of my travel schedule. However, I am making special arrangements to sign and ship books during my travels. When I receive your order, I'll send you an email with the approximate ship date.

Yet more very fine print (CA only): I have to charge sales tax on books shipped within California. Please add the sales tax for your California county (or 8% if you do not know it).

Send me a check with a note to tell me...
