Synopsis

A touching story of the friendship between a young boy and his elderly neighbour, and how that boy helps jog the man's disappearing memory. Caius spends summer mornings on his neighbour’s porch, and although Mr. Johnson doesn't remember things as well as he used to, he can always sing the beginning of his favourite song, "Further Along." Caius understands how nourishing music can be, and so he decides to find the rest of Mr. Johnson's song. At the library he inspects shelves of hymnals and listens to recordings of protest tunes, but none of these is the one Mr. Johnson sings. How will he help his neighbour? Exuding warmth, this story displays kindness and neighbourliness and portrays dementia with gentle authenticity.
