Book
Blueberry man / Christina E. Petrides ; illustrated by Nika Tchaikovskaya.
"This is a true story, a picture book based on childhood memories of a young girl who lived in Georgia, USA. She remembers her grandfather, an American Navy veteran who had fought in the Second World War. After the war, he worked as a farmer, and grew many delicious blueberries, which he generously shared with friends and neighbors. Growing blueberries helped him to recover from his bad wartime memories, and bring joy to many people. "Blueberries are good for you! You can never have too many," Granddaddy used to say. Blueberry Man is a book full of hope-filled memories. Beautiful childhood memories. You can never have too many!" - Amazon.
