Grandpa gets the quiet jobs at Christmas and, as a rule, no credit for any of them — which suits him, and is exactly why somebody else has to write them down.
The ladder. The batteries. The walk around the block when the house gets too loud for anybody sensible. This book notices all of it, in a baby's voice, on the first Christmas the two of them shared, and both names go inside. Nothing in it is a compliment exactly; it is closer to a list of things observed. Hardcover.
That is why it works on a man who deflects compliments. A list is harder to wave away than praise is, and this one is accurate. Give it early in the day, before the ladder comes out again. He will not say much about it, which should not be read as a verdict on the book.
