I Want a Grandma Who's Famous

Our grandchildren think we are awesome. They don't say 'Grandma act your age!'

A picture book for all grandparents and grandchildren to enjoy together.

Sit and read, sing along, or dust off that ukulele or guitar to either play along with a recorded song, or sing it independent of the recording.

Enjoy this true story of the fun a grandmother has with her grandchildren.

June Savage has always had a strong interest in music, playing instruments and singing. In 1971 June and her singing partner Bruce Pownall won New Faces on the television show Studio One. As part of the prize, they recorded 2 songs and toured New Zealand with Roger Whittaker. June was a member of The Nelson Bay Harmony Chorus, a women's barbershop group for 16 years, and for the past two years has belonged to two Country Music clubs. Over the years, she has written many parodies and humorous songs that are popular with her audiences. In her local Nelson Country Music club, she won the John Hore songwriting competition in two consecutive years. Her grandchildren were her initial inspiration for songwriting, but now that has widened to include humorous situations that she comes across in her daily life.

It's never too late to follow your dreams.
