FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Of Interest To: Baby media, parents media, senior media, lifestyle editors, book reviewers; Regional: United States, California, Los Angeles human interest markets. NEW BOOK PROVIDES WEALTH OF GLOBAL INFORMATION, ACTIVITIES, AND NICKNAMES FOR GRANDPARENT-CHILD RELATIONS. Los Angeles, CA -- (MINDSET NETWIRE) -- January 22, 2001. Ariane Fleiderman and Jill Cordell's just-published book "The World's Only Grandparent Nickname Book" celebrates the world-cherished relationship between grandparents and newborns as they grow. The unique book provides a cafeteria of tools to cement and enrich such relationships. And because the content is gathered from diverse cultures, the book has a strong international flavor. The book features nicknames for grandparents in 22 languages, poetry, activities for the grandparents and children to share, recipes to prepare together, and plentiful trivia. A special feature presents ideas for keeping alive those long-distance grandparent-child relationships, so common these days when so many families move around. The authors were inspired to produce the book partly because of the life-changing relationships they shared with their own grandparents. They themselves had special nicknames, stemming from four different cultures, for each of their grandfathers and grandmothers. These links provide some of the book's activity and recipe content. Jill Cordell notes: "This book was one of the most creative, loving projects I have ever been involved with. The work was sheer pleasure from the very beginning. I hope everyone who reads the book experiences the rich TLC that was poured into each page."
