Granny Was a Buffer Girl, Paperback / softback Book

Granny Was a Buffer Girl Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Before leaving Sheffield for a year's adventure in France, 18 year-old Jess joins a family gathering.

They share stories that have bound them together through generations.

Stories of heartbreak, humour and romance. She listens to the tale of her grandparents, whose love kept them together in spite of family conflicts; of her other granny Dorothy’s daily toil from the dirt and grime of the buffing wheel; and of her parents’ first meeting. And, of course, there’s Jess’s own story too. Granny was a Buffer Girl won the Carnegie Medal in 1986. Illustrated by Tamsin Rosewell.
