About a lazy grandmother

ABOUT

How do we recognize the right grandmother? Often does she watch her grandchildren, knit sweaters, scarves, and hats for them, bake marble and poppy seed cakes and fruit pies... At least, that is how parents usually imagine the right grandma, who is needed mainly to look after kids when parents want to go to the cinema or theatre. Nevertheless, our grandma is not the proper grandma. She is too lazy for doing all of that. ... Actually, no. She is perfect! She has finally got some peace as she is retired. This is why she sleeps long when she does not want to get up, chats with her friends and, most importantly, makes her dreams come true. She has never had time for that before. And my goodness, the dreams are not just any dreams! Most of them take a lot of courage and adventurous spirit. Neither of which our grandmother certainly lacks.

Recommended for audiences aged 6 to 106.
