This book is intended for ages 4-8. Every day, children of all ages are forced to confront the reality that a family member has Alzheimer's Disease. With so many 'adult' discussions going on, a child sometimes feels left out and confused. "What's Wrong with Grandma?" speaks to the children trying to cope with an elder who's acting very strange. Young Ellen expresses, as only a child can, the frustration, sadness, and even anger felt toward Grandma's peculiar behaviour, her lapses of memory, and her unexplained fears. But she also captures the warmth and humour of special moments the family shares with Grandma.
Margaret Shawver tutors children with an eye toward improving both academic skills and self-esteem.
