<p>When he finds a photograph of his grandfather as a young man, Liam is full of questions. But that’s just fine, because Grampy has a story to spin with every answer. <\/p>
\n<p>On a fall day in 1962, he tells Liam, he had a run-in with a nasty girl in search of a dance partner: Daisy was her name. What follows is a tall tale about Grampy’s tango with a hurricane, and all those signs of aging \u2013 the wrinkles, the stooped back, the croaky voice, the false teeth \u2013 can be chalked up to Daisy’s persistence and Grampy’s refusal to dance. Of course, it takes a talking to from Nana to get that Daisy to blow off elsewhere. <\/p>
\n<p>Acclaimed author Jan L. Coates and award-winning illustrator Jos\u00e9e Bisaillon join forces in this charming picture book to craft a tale both touching and amusing about aging and the bond between a grandfather and his grandson. Bisaillon?s gorgeous, playful illustrations bring the dance to life, evoking that windy girl and her insistent ways, as well as the warm affection between Grampy and Liam.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
