A Funny Old World in pictures aims to bring a smile to the face of the reader. Full of powerful photographs both old and new, and a selection of humorous and cheerful quotations, the book illustrates some of the joyful, curious and surreal aspects of the world we live in.If you're looking for something to help raise a smile or lighten a mood, then this is the book for you.All the images are powerful and easy to understand, and prompt lots of smiles and discussion between those with Alzheimer's or other dementia and their family, friends and carers. Even when people with dementia can no longer hold a conversation they will enjoy looking through the book and studying the pages. Arranged in a clear and easy to understand format, the book is recommended for those with dementia by the Reading Well, Books on Prescription scheme in England.
