Super Grandpa with CD (Audio)

by David M. Schwartz

Super Grandpa with CD (Audio) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

Ages 4 and up. Hardcover book w/ audio cd. A thrilling picture book based on the true story of Gustaf Hakannson's historic bike ride. In 1951, at age 66, Gustaf entered the Tour of Sweden--over the judges' objections--and, to the delight of his countrymen, finished first! Captivating for children and inspiring to seniors who refuse to "go home to their rocking chair."
