Granny by the Sea

Moa Graaf, illustrated by Moa Graaf

Imagine having a brave, warm-hearted and inquisitive granny who lives right by the sea. A granny who isn’t afraid of deep water or big fish, and who bravely battles against the waves in her little boat, dives to great depths and collects beautiful shells for her grandchild (who is also the storyteller).

One day when granny’s dress blows out to sea, she swims after it as fast as a sleek shiny mermaid. But not quite fast enough to catch it. So together with granny, the girl makes a new, very special dress – a dress for a grandma by the sea.

A poetic and moving picture book about friendship that crosses the boundary of generations, Granny by the Sea by Moa Graaf makes for delightful reading and contains enchanting watercolour illustrations.
