Rockstar Grandparent ― How You Can Lead the Way, Light the Road, and Launch a Legacy

A guide to grandparenting with purpose and fun--in the age of smart phones and social media.

Grandparenting may be different today, but it still can be meaningful and fun for both the kids and the adults. Today's grandparent needs to understand technology--how it mesmerizes grandchildren but also enhances the opportunities to connect and share life experiences. And while many of the roles grandparents play in the lives of grandchildren have changed, their most important role of influencing with wisdom, faith, and fun remains the same. The author addresses topics relevant to all grandparents and also looks at the challenges of grandchildren living in single parent or blended families. Also included are stories from the author's journey with her own grandchildren--including Duck Dynasty's Sadie Robertson.

CHRYS HOWARD, the mother of Duck Dynasty's, Korie Robertson, claims she really did have a life before Duck Dynasty, sometimes it's just hard to remember what it was. She holds a degree in elementary education and spent ten years teaching children with learning differences. She was named to Who's Who of American Teachers. After teaching, she joined their family owned business, Howard Publishing, where she served as senior editor and creative director for twelve years. Chrys is the founder and president of It's a Mom Thing Ministries and hosts a weekly radio show and website by the same name. She has written a number of books with over 1,000,000 copies sold, including Kay Robertson's New York Times bestselling cookbook, Miss Kay's Duck Commander's Kitchen. Chrys is married to John Howard, has three grown children and fourteen grandchildren. The Howards make their home in Louisiana.
