Grandpa once danced on the vaudeville stage, and as he glides across the  floor, the children can see what it was like to be a song and dance man. Gammell  captures all the story's inherent \u003ci\u003ejoie de vivre\u003c\/i\u003e with color pencil renderings that  leap off the pages. Bespectacled, enthusiastic Grandpa clearly exudes the message  that you're only as old as you feel, but the children respond--as will readers--to  the nostalgia of the moment.
