Helpful Score: 1


The illustrations in this book are very detailed and so life like. This is a touching story is about a young boy who lives next to a home for the elderly. The generational differences add to this story. One of the women who lives in the home has lost her memory. The child doesn't know what a memory is and asks the others what a memory is. The answers he receives tells us a lot about these men and women and their memories both happy and sad. My only fault with this story is that the when the child puts together a gift for the woman who lost her memories she seems get get some of her memories back. This could give a grandchild the wrong message if a grandparent had a form of dementia.
