APSU FALL'17 discussion

Honestly, I think it would not have been light-hearted if the grandmother was telling the story. She would tell it like it is and that would mean telling the blatant truth about what was going on in the world while she hid it from her grandchildren. I do agree with you Alexsys. If it were told from the grandmother's point of view, I do believe we would read a darker, more upsetting and depressing book than the light-hearted, humorous tale we get from the child's point of view.
