Like its classic companion book, Grandpa Loved Josephine Nobisso has written about love that transcends death. A scrapbook becomes the vehicle for discovering how much the grandmother cherished her grand daughter. This is not a sad book about death and dying but about the power of love and memory over death.

Synopsis
