Grannie Annie, Vol. 5

Selections from The Grannie Annie Family Story Celebration

In the pages of this volume, you’ll travel across the United States and on to New Zealand and Australia, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. You’ll escape from eighteenth-century thieves, a burning helicopter, and the eerie shadows of a swamp path. You’ll pick cotton, build a go-kart, and turn around at just the right time. You’ll chuckle — and shudder — over mysteries solved.

This year, for the first time, you have the unique opportunity to read the Grannie Annie writings of young people from Australia, New Zealand, and Moldova, who share a glimpse of their part of the world. Their stories will remind you that at their best, families the world over support one another through joys and challenges.

The thirty-four stories in Grannie Annie, Vol. 5, were written by students from U.S. grades 4–8 or by homeschool or international students ages 9–14 after interviews with their family storykeepers.
