Remember Me?/Te acuerdas de mi?

by Sue Glass, illustrated by W Yunker

A young girl's grandfather can't or doesn't want to remember her anymore. Her mother is upset. What did she do wrong? Understanding comes after the guilt and secrecy surrounding her grandfather's Alzheimer's disease is exposed.

This book is full of bold, contemporary, acrylic artwork. Strong splashes of color to create pictures with child appeal are sure to please. The book displays expressions of frustration and confusion from the child and the loving but emptiness of the grandfather.
