Grandma Speaks in Colour

A picture book by Dr Abigail Muchecheti

Some grandmas tell stories with words.

Mine tells them with colours.

Grandma Speaks in Colour is a joyful, poetic picture book that celebrates imagination, memory, and the beautiful ways we communicate beyond language. When Grandma paints, the child in the story sees more than pictures — they see the stories of home, of love, of who they are.

From the red of her hibiscus tea to the gold of her laughter, Grandma shows the world in bright, bold brushstrokes.

Perfect for children aged 3–7 and anyone raised on colour, care, and creativity, this story reminds us that love doesn’t always sound like a sentence — sometimes, it looks like a rainbow.
