Key Features

Description

Eric describes Christmas at his grandmother's apartment in Spanish Harlem the year she introduced him to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. There he saw Diego Velazquez's portrait of Juan de Pareja, which has had a profound and lasting effect on him, as he realizes for the first time that he could be an artist when he grows up. Grandma witnesses his fascination, and presents Eric with the perfect Christmas gift — a set of paints to use in his first steps toward becoming an artist.
A heart-warming story of self-discovery, Grandma's Gift is a celebration of the special bond between a grandparent and grandchild.
