"Today is the day!" Grandma sang out with glee. "Today is the day the grands come for tea!"

Grandma Gee wakes full of excitement bright and early one morning to prepare for her grandchildren's visit. She bakes cookies and scones in happy anticipation; her teapot whistles as the sweet tea brews. At last, the grands arrive—and with them comes a surprising guest, one who turns Grandma's well-planned tea party into something chaotic . . . but just as fun!

A laugh-out-loud, playful rhyming story full of delectible artwork, A Tea Party Surprise! is the heartwarming tale of a grandmother and her grandchildren spending time together, and the joy and the memories they make.
