A Boy Named Mike Spends Weekends at Mommom's and Poppop's - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Some of the best childhood memories are made in the simplest places with grandparents, family, friends, and time together.

A Boy Named Mike Spends Weekends at Mommom's and Poppop's is a warm, illustrated children's story based on Michael W. Hensley's childhood memories in Delaware. After Mike's family moves away from the grandparents he lovingly calls Mommom and Poppop, he misses seeing them as often. Then his mother and Mommom make a plan: Mike, his brother Joe, and his sister Missy can spend special weekends with their grandparents.

Those visits become the kind of childhood adventures Mike never forgets. He and Joe make new friends, ride BMX bikes through the trailer park, explore the woods, build forts, play hide-and-seek and board games, watch wrestling on television, and enjoy home-cooked meals with Poppop. Visits from Mike's great-Mommom make family time even more meaningful.

As the years pass, Mike grows from a boy into an adult, joins the Marine Corps, and continues to carry the love and lessons of his grandparents with him. When he later becomes a Poppop himself, he hopes to give his own grandchildren the same sense of belonging, joy, and treasured family memories.

Perfect for ages 5-9, this heartfelt illustrated book celebrates the bond between grandparents and grandchildren, multigenerational families, sibling relationships, childhood friendship, outdoor play, family traditions, and the lasting value of time spent together. A meaningful read-aloud and gift for grandparents, grandchildren, parents, and families who know that hugs are free and time together is precious.
