Poppy is eleven and has attitude. When she finds herself living with her cantankerous grandfather, a man she neither like nor loves all hell breaks loose. Something of a hermit; a man living in the past who sees very little good in anybody, her Grandad is suddenly and unexpectedly confronted by a tornado of energy that can’t sit still and asks too many questions. He is a man with no telly, no computer and no patience. Their developing relationship is volatile, very funny and has moments of real tenderness.
Grow up Grandad, is an intergenerational story that deals with love and loss, hope and sadness, as the relationship between Poppy and her Grandad is thrust together and torn apart.
