Each day that begins in memory loss offers a new opportunity to join a loved one right where they are and cover them in comfort and support. Through inspiring words, incorporating shades of green, and beautiful illustrations, the author shares a tender tale of love amidst memory loss. She begins by taking the reader on a quest through understanding, empathy, and finding joy amidst the unknowns. By leaning into love, this story is perfect for any caregiver, child, or loved one experiencing memory loss of any kind. It opens a gentle conversation about patience, vulnerability, and becoming a safe-space for those affected to feel “seen” and “held”, no matter what the day brings.

This can be such an isolating journey, and the author extends support to all who are traveling it.
