Description
Grandad Pigeon is the first book from Paul Gunning, himself a grandad and pigeon fancier, who was inspired to write a story for his own grandchildren.
The subject, of course, had to be about pigeon racing and pigeon fancying. Lowen is a little girl who regularly visits her grandad who she calls Grandad Pigeon.
In this engaging and uplifting story we learn a lot about pigeon racing and, as if that were not enough, there is even a brief pigeon facts section at the end. It is beautifully illustratd by artist Rob Page with 15 full colour half page drawings, and chapter header images.
Beverley Burke –
This charming, beautiful book is a pleasure to read. It’s a story of a Grandad and his beautiful granddaughter’s shared love of pigeon fancying. This lovely book is dedicated to my dad Sammy Smith. Paul the author and is uncle Sammy spent years loving and caring for pigeons, Chickens and shared a love of nature and the great outdoors.
A must read for any child and my dad who is 93 and blind adores listening to the adventures of Grandad Pigeon – highly recommended
