A great companion to this high-profile author's bestselling picture book My Two Grannies

Grandad Harry is from Lancashire and plays the trumpet in a brass band; Grandad Roy is from Trinidad and plays the steel drum in a steel band. Aston wants to play both these instruments, just like his grandads, and he also wants botht he grandads to bring their bands to his school summer fair. But there's a problem - only one band is needed!

How Aston saves the situation and brings both his grandads together in a musical extravaganza is delightfully portrayed in this brilliant follow-up to My Two Grannies.

Industry Reviews

"If anyone is qualified to depict the multi-cultural experience, our Baroness Benjamin of Beckenham is and here we get the tale of two grandads and all the trumpet-blowing and drum-banging, not to mention embarrassing dad dancing, that entails."
Families South East

"A cheering tale about what can happen when we co-operate despite our differences."
Juno
