Grandma told me to tell you she's sorry with printed edges

Elsa is seven years old and possesses a sharp, relentless intelligence that makes her different, but also marginalized. The only one who understands her and cultivates her confidence is her grandmother, a former doctor in disaster-stricken areas, who is herself seen by others as an eccentric madwoman. Because "all children need superheroes," the grandmother invents stories for Elsa where everyone is different and no one has to be normal, and the goal is to prepare her for what she is about to discover and experience in life. The characters from the grandmother's stories – who turn out to be none other than her apartment building neighbors – will be by her side in the events that will engulf her.

This novel, which demolishes clichés about normality, will undoubtedly inspire grandparents in their relationship with their grandchildren and will delight readers of all ages. My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry is a book about diversity and acceptance.
