How about gifting your grandson a signed copy of one of Toni Morrison's books? You can search online for a signed or first edition copy of his favorite book, or a collection of Morrison's works. Another idea could be to gift him a yearly subscription to a literary magazine that focuses on writers of color like The Paris Review, A Public Space, or The New Yorker. This way he can stay up to date on contemporary authors in addition to reading his favorite author's books. If your grandson is also into music, a vinyl of some of his favorite artists would accompany the gift perfectly.
Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
