Celebrating Grandparents Day with Bill Withers' Timeless Tribute: Grandma's Hands

LOS ANGELES - EntSun -- As Grandparents Day approaches on Sunday, September 8th, families are preparing to honor the cherished elders who have played pivotal roles in shaping their lives. This year, the celebration takes on an extra special meaning with the release of the children's book Grandma's Hands, inspired by the timeless song of the same name by the legendary Bill Withers.

Considered the unofficial anthem of Grandparents Day, Grandma's Hands celebrates the timeless bond between grandparents and their grandchildren. Originally released in 1971 as part of Withers' debut album Just As I Am, the song instantly became an anthem for generations, honoring the nurturing spirit of grandmothers everywhere. The children's book adaptation beautifully translates this iconic tribute into a story that resonates with readers of all ages.

"Grandparents Day is a time to reflect on the unconditional love and guidance our grandparents provide," says Marcia Withers, wife of the late Bill Withers. "Bill Withers' Grandma's Hands is the perfect companion for this celebration, offering a heartfelt reminder of the deep connections we share with our grandparents."
