Book Description
for Gran, You've Got Mail! by Jo Hoestlandt and Aurelie Abolivier
From The United States Board on Books for Young People (USBBY)
Annabelle reluctantly begins writing letters to her great-grandmother as a means to improve her keyboard skills, but she must send hard copies since her great-grandmother does not use e-mail. Through a series of their letters, readers see how their relationship grows, how her great-grandmother becomes some one Annabelle can confide in, and even though they may not be the same age, just like all of us, they share similar emotions and experiences . si
