Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

An invaluable resource for grandparents wanting to make the most of their time with grandchildren
Grandparents play a critical role in the lives of their grandchildren. Their support and involvement make a huge difference in the social and academic growth of grandkids, whether it's reading out loud or visiting the zoo, explaining their heritage or teaching a second language.
In The Grandparent Effect, Kristen Amundson reveals the many ways that grandparents can have a positive impact on their grandchildren. From preschool through high school, Amundson highlights programs that involve grandparents, explains the most current research in child development and education, shares stories of active and involved grandparents, and provides resources for further enrichment. Throughout, she emphasizes the importance of grandparents supporting their own children in their parenting journey and not overstepping, offering guidance on how best to integrate new parenting methods into their grandparenting efforts.
Featuring fun activities and recommendations for educating while spending quality time with grandchildren, and with a chapter specially for grandparents who have become primary caregivers, The Grandparent Effect is a much-needed resource for grandparents who are already involved and for those who want to do more. Because the love and support of grandparents, whether from far away or in the home, can make all the difference.
