This has a very nice message. I do like that saying. I try to bring it to mind when one of my friends who is an up and coming actor speaks of what his worth is. I noticed that is what they focus on with television characters too, My friend is 19 so I want him to realize to me he is priceless. I hope your writing will waken the reader to realize who is priceless to them.

    Thanks for the insightful review. I love the look of pure admiration on a young boy's face when dad or grand dad pull off some feat. Cheers

Not badly written, but this a very old concept. Everybody has always talked about the person who paid way to much to win so little at carnivals. Sorry, but it didn't do anything for me. Looking for something original.

Well done. Humorous but real. the relationships between grandparents and grandchildren is amazingly complex but also amazingly simple. Nice story. Good luck in the contest.

This is a great little story, author. The humor aspect of it seems to be going over my head though. It's adorable and cute and all but I think humor is something that makes people laugh or chuckle, like a joke. Maybe I'm missing it. Might I be able to get you to elaborate? This is entered into a 'humorous' 50 word story contest but I'm not really seeing anything funny about it. Yes, it's cute and adorable but cute and adorable, at least to me, shouldn't be labeled under humor. Any feedback as to what I'm missing would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Cheers, at the county fair, the games are usually rigged so the guy buys hundreds of balls to win one cheap toy, he could have bought for seven dollars. The grandkids has no idea of money, all he sees is grand dad winning such a grand prize. I am not known for my humour, but this makes me smile. Thanks for the review.

    Yes, the thought of having fun and winning a prize with the grandchildren brings us all smiles, though it's not really humorous as per the contest requirements.

    The funny part is that the guy spends hundreds of dollars on a cheap toy. Okay, not funny.

That is impressive tbat you were able to fit an entire story within fifty words. I know that is hard to do, a lot gets left on the cutting room floor. Good luck in the contest.

I absolutely love this! I can also relate all too well! You describe it so well in fact it makes me smile due to the fact I can see the excitement in that child's face.
Thank you so much for sharing! Very well done

    Fair season coming up. I am guilty of winning many expensive, yet cheap stuffed toys, haha, thanks for the review
