Have you ever wondered what babysitting looks like from the perspective of a precocious one-year-old? Ever wondered what an active one-year-old toddler thinks as she teasingly invites her grandfather to participate in her laughter-filled, fun-loving, dash-about day? Every grandparent understands the challenges and pleasures of babysitting. Grandparents everywhere understand the unceasing, unflagging, incredible bundle of energy called "the one-year-old toddler"-more aptly described as a human, perpetual-motion machine-and they know how love and patience allow those toddlers to blossom and thrive. Babysitting Grandpa depicts a day when the playful, toddling sprite meets the seasoned grandfather-a day when a delightful, curious, exuberant grandchild tells the tale of looking after her Grandpa.
