MY GRANDMA JANE

Written by Soon-Jae Shin and illustrated by Ju-mi Lee

“Are you maybe sick?” Mom asked in a worried tone as soon as I returned from school. “Your face is flushed.” But I am totally fine…. Maybe my heart is beating just a bit faster, and my face seems a little red. That’s all. This all started in PE class.

If Jane Goodall had a grand daughter that just fell in love, what stories would she tell? This illustrated book started from that kind of curiosity.
