Grandma's Bill by Martin Waddell, illustrated by Jane Johnson. MacDonald Young Books, 1995.
This book focuses on Bill's Granny going through her photograph albums, reminiscing about her late husband, the original Bill. It takes the younger Bill a little while to understand the relationships between the people in the photographs and the people he knows. Although the concept of death is not explained it is obvious that Grandpa remains an important part of Granny's life, although why it has taken so long to introduce Bill, the younger, to his grandfather is not explained. Simple text with gentle illustrations.
