Synopsis

A resource for families to initiate conversation with young children about Alzheimer's and dementia, containing activities for all ages. It can be confusing and possibly frightening for children to experience changes in a loved one. Just Like Me handles the confusion, and lets children know that their loved one is still there, and more like them than before. The colorful illustrations enable young children to retell the story using picture cues. While the story is written for small children, the variety of follow-up discussion questions and activities lend themselves to all ages. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Alzheimer's Association.
