What's happening to grandpa? / by Maria Shriver ; illustrated by Sandra Speidel.

Shriver, Maria, (author.). Speidel, Sandra, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Kate has always adored her grandpa's storytelling - but lately he's been repeating the same stories again and again. One day he even forgets Kate's name. Her mother's patient explanations open Kate's eyes to what so many of the elderly must confront: Alzheimer's disease and other forms of memory loss. With special insight derived from her own father's struggle with Alzheimer's, Maria Shriver offers a touching and optimistic story that encourages awareness, acceptance, and dialogue among family and friends.
