Grandma Calls Me Beautiful

by Barbara M. Joosse; illustrated by Barbara Lavallee

On a warm Hawaiian beach, Tutu (grandmother in Hawaiian) tells her granddaughter Beautiful the story of her birth. In gentle verse, Tutu tells Beautiful a talk-story, as Beautiful's fingers twitch along and the sea dances in rhythm to the story. In this sweet story of love, Beautiful is reassured that she will always be beautiful.
