Grandma Gee: The Spinning Globe (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781836150466)

In Grandma Gee: The Spinning Globe, Rahim Galia transports young readers around the world on a magical, globe-trotting journey.

Sunil and Nina love to visit their little Grandma Gee, especially because of her antique globe-a colourful, rainbow-hued relic that lights up 'all the countries and all the blue oceans of the world'. But Grandma Gee has one strict rule: the globe must be handled with care. However, when Sunil's excitement gets the best of him and he spins it too fast, things quickly spiral out of control.

Reminiscent of the author's own childhood, what begins as a simple lesson in geography soon transforms into an unexpected and thrilling journey as Sunil, Nina, and even their grumpy Grandpa are swept off their feet - literally! Whirling through the air, the family is transported into a cosmic adventure and they find themselves floating above the Earth. As they glide above London's famous landmark to the mesmerising Taj Mahal and the wild African safari, Grandma Gee shares stories and fun facts from her past. With every movement, the children learn something new, not only about the world's wonders but also about the importance of curiosity, respect, and understanding different cultures.

This charming story, filled with vibrant characters and heartwarming moments, invites readers to imagine the wonder that comes from exploring and discovering new places. Perfect for young adventurers, Grandma Gee: The Spinning Globe encourages its readers to think past what's in front of us, to what might be possible if we take that first curious step, and the loved ones we share it with, making it an exciting and educational addition to any child's bookshelf.
