- The Greatest by VEERA HIRANANDANI & illustrated by VESPER STAMPER. Grandpa loves Sundays -- that's when his three grandchildren come to visit. They act out plays, catch fireflies in the yard, and celebrate Jewish holidays together. Sometimes, though, he wonders why they think he's so great? Should he tell them that he's just an average, ordinary man?
