In a sentimental, informative story that honors intergenerational relationships, Janet and her "slowpoke" grandmother take a leisurely walk in the woods, making frequent stops for Grandma to observe cardinals, ants, and other woodland animals. The tables turn when Janet wants to wait to see the elusive muskrat. Detailed illustrations imbue the lush greenery and active animals with more life than the static human characters.

A little girl is happy to go on a walk with Grandma, but Grandma is a such a slowpoke! She stops to listen and point out the different creatures they see, sharing her knowledge with her grandchild. At the river, it is the little girl who spots a little muskrat Grandma didnt see. Grandma Is a Slowpoke is a simple story that delivers a joyous message how much fun it can be if we take time to be present with the world around us. The story encourages children to observe nature. Michele Coxons beautiful fine color brush brings life to the creatures on each page and makes the animals so endearing.
