A wickedly funny series for ages six and up from the creator of Where Bear?, Pass It On and the Pom Pom series, with colour illustrations throughout. Jeanie’s Grandma is BAD. Not bad like a vampire or a gangster or anything, more like . . . up to no good. Sometimes she can be a bit embarrassing but most of the time she’s REALLY fun, especially when she gets Jeanie involved in her mischievous schemes. Everyone says she’s old enough to know better . . . but she doesn’t seem to care one bit. In fact, Jeanie thinks she might quite like it! Bad Nana is a deliciously wicked new series for ages six and up, told through the eyes of 7 3/4-year-old Jeanie. Gorgeously illustrated throughout with vibrantly coloured spreads, Bad Nana’s naughty exploits will shock and appal – and make you snort with laughter!

So this book is about a nana called bad nana and she does bad stuff like robbing the bank. But, she hides this stuff from small children because she wants them to have fun. At the end, she goes home and finally relaxes. I like the character bad nana because she’s so funny and has good skills. I would definitely recommend this to a friend I know.

I thought this book was very bizarre but also funny. Especially when bad nana crossed out all the park rules and saw the park officer turned red
