Description

Author Kathleen Welch, a member of the Core Committee for developing the Louisiana Alzheimer's State Plan, and her husband, illustrator Alan McGillivray, provide a child's perspective in their tale for little ones experiencing Alzheimer's and dementia in their family. As the elder elephant and her young grandson spend the day together, she forgets her hat, loses her brush, gets lost, confuses her grandson's name, and tells stories of things that happened long ago as if they just occurred. When danger threatens, her love for her family shines through the clouds of her memory and she remembers things she learned as a child. The author provides a guide to further discussion with young children and a resource list for families facing this devastating disease.
