Hanbin Lee My grandfather

Age 11

9-12 year olds

I have chosen to draw my grandfather because he always cares about me and loves me. I drew this with all my heart and respect. I am going to be so sad because he will leave Australia soon, but I am never going to forget him. If I did not have Grandfather, I would not know anything that he taught me.
