When someone you love starts to forget... how do you help a child understand?
Pop-Pop gives the best hugs. He pushes the swings higher and makes up silly game rules. He cooks by feel and always knows how to make a day magical.
But one day... something changes.
Pop-Pop begins forgetting little things - the rules to a game, where he left his keys. Then one day, he forgets something that feels much bigger. When the family learns he has Alzheimer's disease, a young child must navigate confusing emotions - fear, sadness, and uncertainty - while holding onto the love they've always shared.
Still My Pop-Pop is a tender and reassuring picture book that helps children ages 4-8 understand Alzheimer's and dementia in a gentle, age-appropriate way. Through warmth, honesty, and hopeful moments, it reminds families that even when memories fade, connection and love remain.
Perfect for families in the sandwich generation caring for aging parents, as well as classrooms, counselors, and libraries seeking compassionate books about memory loss, empathy, and intergenerational love.
Because even if he forgets a name...
he will never forget a heart.
