Tamika's grandfather has an expressive face which can "ask a question without saying one word." One day she forgets he is a professional actor, thinking his stern face might be directed at her. An upbeat glimpse of a three-generation urban African-American family. (Ages 4-8)

Seeing her beloved grandfather making a mean face while he rehearses for one of his plays, Tamika becomes afraid that someday she will lose his love and he will make that mean face at her. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.
