Today's first-time grandmothers are the youngest ever. At an average age of only 47, they're not the white-haired, cookie-scented matrons of yesteryear -- and please, don't call them "Granny." "The Hip Grandma's Handbook "resents is the perfect accessory for today's new grandma. An eclectic collection of humor, reflections, and product recommendations, it offers worldly wisdom and common-sense advice on everything from glam alternatives to "Grammy" (think "M'Mere") to tips on feigning interest in yet another round of ultrasounds ("It looks...just like you"). The book's funny, funky voice is a refreshing alternative to the traditional titles on the market, yet it offers wholesome, time-honored information for conscientious grandmothers looking to nourish and nurture grandchildren -- while maintaining their own identity and having fun in the process. Entertaining and inspiring, the book is a thoughtful gift for M'Meres of any age.
