A grandma asks her granddaughter to be the grandma that night because she is too tired. She relates the list of things that they have already done together. So Grandma has her granddaughter do all the things for her such as rubbing her neck and back, making her a bedtime snack, making shadow puppets, reading stories, and turning off the light. But her granddaughter says that she is also tired. Who will put her to bed?

You Be Grandma is humorous and relatable. I enjoyed the way this very tired grandma in the story was still creative, and even made going to bed another fun activity for her granddaughter. The illustrations are colorful and adorable. Mexican ethnicity is represented in this book.
