Born talking--allegedly--Julia Jarman loved telling stories from an early age. She loved reading them too, and read every kids' book in the local library. Julia became a teacher of English and Drama, got married, had three kids and started writing for them. She has never stopped, and has books for everyone from tots to teens and in betweens. Susan Varley is a prize-winning artist whose best-selling Badger's Parting Gifts is one of the most enduring picture books of all time. She lives with her husband and daughter in Staffordshire, UK.
"Most appropriate for a child coping with such a situation, this is
a selection that explains the concept of memory loss well and will
help develop compassion in all who read it. A supportive, honest,
and needed explanation of Alzheimer's-type illnesses."―Kirkus
