"Ordinary Grace" by William Kent Krueger

Much of the book has to do with young Frank's attempt to separate what he thinks he knows from what might (or might not) be the ultimate truth.  Have you ever been in a position of "knowing" something with certainty...and then learning that your judgment was wrong?  How can we guard ourselves false accusations?

Parental Guidance on DVD

 

Old school grandfather Artie (Billy Crystal), who is accustomed to calling the shots, meets his match when he and his eager-to-please wife Diane (Bette Midler) agree to babysit their three grandkids when their type-A helicopter parents (Marisa Tomei, Tom Everett Scott) go away for work. But when 21st century problems collide with Artie and Diane's old school methods of tough rules, lots of love and old-fashioned games, it's learning to bend -- and not holding your ground -- that binds a family together.
Rated PG
