Alvina's two grannies want to do different things, but Alvina thinks of a way they can compromise so the grannies can become the best of friends.
Alvina has two grannies: Grannie Vero from Trinidad and Grannie Rose from England. When Alvina's parents go on vacation, both grannies arrive to look after Alvina. But the two grannies have two "very" different ideas about what to eat, what to play, even what stories to tell. The grannies get angrier and angrier with each other, but Alvina devises a plan so that each granny can have her own way -- or so she hopes! This sweet, funny story about tolerance and understanding reminds children that no matter how great the differences may seem, there's always room for common ground.
