K-Gr 3-- This picture book tells the story of a deceased grandfather and the way in which his grandson / namesake come to know him through a photo album preserved and shared by the boy's grandmother. The child learns about his grandmother's husband through photographs of forebears dressed in funny clothes, from grandfather's childhood to his own parents' wedding. By the time the boy himself appears in the photo album, grandfather Bill has died. While the sadness is clear, it is dealt with sparingly and as a natural part of the rhythm of life. The elder Bill's participation in a war and his resulting disability is dealt with in equally tactful prose. The role of photographs in preserving precious memories to be passed on to future generations is salient here, as is the familial love. The English setting is often in the foreground, but Johnson's finely detailed watercolors make the characters appear real, although occasionally awkward, mirroring the look of old, posed photographs. The family resemblance carries well through the years, and the overall effect is quaint and warm. --Ruth K. MacDonald, Purdue University Calumet, Hammond, IN (c) Copyright 2010.

Young Bill and his grandma engage in comfortable conversation as they look through her photographs, tracing the family from the time Grandfather Bill was a baby to the present. The sepia-tone snapshots regularly evolve into full-color spreads, giving a sense of immediacy to the past. A cozy and nostalgic tribute to the power of family ties.

When Bill visits Grandma, she tells him about ""my other Bill. . .Your daddy's daddy,"" showing Bill a photo album that goes back to his grandfather's infancy. In zippy, expertly tuned dialogue, the two cover three generations of family history, with Waddell deftly conveying the child's cheery self-confidence and showing just a glimmer of' the deeper meaning the story has for Grandma. Johnson's realistic illustrations nicely extend the pathos and joy of Grandma's narrative and the affection she shares with young Bill. Copyright ©Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
