Seasons: An Activity Book for Seniors with Dementia, Alzheimer's Patients and Other Memory Loss Conditions | Picture Book Hardcover – Large Print, January 1, 2011

We bought this book for a 93 year old woman in a nursing home. She has some dementia and her speech is affected badly. She loved this book! She could talk about her memories as she looked through the pictures (and her son read the text). It is no small thing to find a gift for someone in a nursing home but fantastic to find something they really can enjoy and relate to.

Bought this for my grandma, she loves it. She loves the pictures! I can get her to answer questions, but she doesn't seem to open up her memories....yet anyway.

great book

I've been writing, speaking and a dedicated advocate for those caring for patients with Alzheimer's or other dementia related diseases for many years now. One of the principles that I preach about, no matter where I go, is that you have to keep your loved one talking.I always educate other how a photo album can be such a great tool. This is why I was thrilled to see these books published by Shadowbox Press. I highly recommend these books. As a caregiver, you need to become, part-time speech therapist. The large and beautiful photographs in these books will help get the job done. Once their down to one or two word sentences, it a downhill ride from there. Great books. Great concept.
