Nana Nini was so much fun! My kiddo Athena LOVED the adventures of nana and her grandchildren.

I loved this read. It is a great and colorful book that my 9-year-old enjoyed very much. Nana Nini and her grandkids are a hoot!

Susan’s The Tales of Nana Nini: Nana Knows is well-written with a touch of humor and very sensible not only to the young minds but also to the boom generation. Read More

Not Your Average Nana

If you love Arizona or if you would just like to share your love of Arizona with your children or grandchildren this is one book you must have. The adventures and the Arizona references are fantastic. I actually learned some things I didn’t know about our great state and I’ve lived here 20 years. I am sharing her book with my two nieces and I can’t wait for them to read it with her mom and dad.
The poem at the end of the book was fantastic. If you want to teach your children the practice of gratitude this is a perfect way to do it. There are so many things to be anxious about in our world and this poem would be a fantastic way to instill peace and gratitude in the lives of your children at the end of the day.
I love the music references and the cultural references from the generation our children won’t know unless we teach it to them. Things like Wally Cleaver and song references from the 70s. It’s a great way to get your children to start asking questions about what your life was like when you were their age.

 A Great Book!

This was a really well-written book, that was enjoyed by the entire family. We have two daughters 8 & 6 years old that made sure that we didn’t forget to read this every night until it was done. A great mix of life lessons, talking dogs, and Nana Nini’s exciting mishaps.

Fantastic read for your growing angel

A fun and educational read. We loved it for storytime! Highly recommended.

I rate The Tales of Nana Nini 5 out of 5 stars.

The Tales of Nana Nini, written by Susan Edie Ashe, is a fun-filled and chaotic children’s story following the adventures of Nana, her granddaughter Eden, and the two dogs, Murphy and Roxy. Together, the family hops in the crowded car and embarks on a fantastic adventure.

The trip takes the family around Arizona, where they learn valuable lessons about the land and themselves. Despite the many mishaps along the way, the motley crew still manages to have a grand adventure filled with fun. The journey also gives the group a chance to learn how to deal with bullies and other unfortunate situations in a positive way.

I liked all the chaos in this book. I never knew what was going to happen next, and it never failed to make me laugh. Even though the book incorporated lessons about deeper topics such as bullying and self-confidence, it remained entertaining from beginning to end with all of Nana’s hilarious antics. The light-hearted humor of the characters made them all extremely fun and loveable. There were also many adorable illustrations throughout the story. The pictures were all just as chaotic as the story and filled with color and vibrancy. Along with that, the illustrations provided great visual representation as I read the book. There was nothing I disliked about this book. The story was hilarious, and I learned many new things about Arizona. The author did a fantastic job of delivering valuable life lessons in a light-hearted and entertaining way. Along with that, I found no grammatical errors as this book was exceptionally well-edited. Due to the reasons listed above, I rate The Tales of Nana Nini 5 out of 5 stars. This book was hilarious, and I was completely immersed from beginning to end. This would be an excellent book for young readers who are dealing with bullying or just need a little more confidence. This would also be a terrific bedtime story or a book to keep in a classroom.
