Calvin Becker&#8217;s family have survived and persisted as Bible-thumping missionaries; it&#8217;s their duty to spread the Word to everyone they meet. But now, having weathered a crisis precipitated by the godless Swiss, they face an even greater spiritual challenge right in their own home: Grandma. Foulmouthed, foul-tempered, and heathen through and through, she&#8217;s staying in the spare room, recuperating from a broken hip&#8212;and making it next to impossible for the Beckers to do the Lord&#8217;s work. Calvin&#8217;s pious mom is determined to save Grandma&#8217;s soul, even if she&#8217;s doing it through gritted teeth and deadly measures. His father&#8217;s spending more and more time in his room, blasting opera to drown out the old lady&#8217;s voice. And Calvin wishes things would just get back to normal so they can go on vacation and he can get close to the girl he loves. But then Calvin starts to understand Grandma a little better and appreciate her a little more. After all, misery loves company.</div> 933280 9 8 2004 Saving Grandma: A Novel (Calvin Becker Trilogy) total:60|5:11|4:14|3:15|2:10|1:5| 60 203 74 10 2 0 false false Fri May 22 06:42:47 -0700 2009 Fri May 22 06:47:15 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jul 11 07:32:54 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 11 07:33:55 -0700 2009 1 0 false false Sat Jun 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 23 09:34:27 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 23 09:36:04 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Tue Sep 08 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 09:15:59 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 10:52:23 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Tue Sep 02 19:16:27 -0700 2008 Tue Sep 02 19:18:48 -0700 2008
