Grandma got run over by a reindeer
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve
You can say there's no such thing as Santa
But as for me and Grandpa, we believe
In "Ribbons" by Laurence Yep, the poem about the grandma reflects her strength, wisdom, and the deep bond she shares with the speaker. The grandma's presence is a source of comfort and guidance amidst challenges, and her love is celebrated through imagery and emotion in the poem.
Paw paw (grandma in chinese) makes her grandchild the girl feel left out
The grandma likes Stacy's little brother better because back in China boys were everything.
I think it might be by Laurence Yep.
grandma dies
Not really sure, but I personally think it's when the Stacy asked her grandmother to help her fix her Ballet shoes and the grandmother freaked out. The grandma thought that it was for bending her feet, and not for dancing.
San Francisco is where the story takes place! =)
