A child copes with grandfather's alzheimer's disease,
This review is from: Remember Me? / Te acuerdas de mi? (Bilingual Edition) (Hardcover)
Children tend to live in the present. This trait helps a young girl deal with her feelings of guilt about her grandfather's alzheimer's disease. As children often do, she thinks he doesn't want to remember her because of something terrible she did or said. There is a powerful message for parents to realize the possibility of this reaction in children. Talking about it helps.
The child's tendency to live in the present and her grandfather's life without memories from the past, ends the book with a hopeful note as the two relate to each other on a new level. An added benefit is that the book has English and Spanish on each page. It also has a glossary to help readers of both languages.
