Books for Children about Alzheimer’s

“Mary, why don’t you write something about Alzheimer’s for children?” a friend asked.  “There’s so little to help children understand why Grandma is the way she is.” 

Our mothers had Alzheimer’s and resided in the same nursing home.  My friend’s children and grandchildren had difficulty seeing Grandma in this condition.

I haven’t written any books on the topic, although I’ve done many articles and a chapter in my book. (See previous post.)  However, I keep on the lookout for books children can read or have read to them that will help them when their grandparents or great grandparents experience Alzheimer’s or a similar condition.
