Sharing Stories, Connecting, and Storytelling When the Sun Goes Down is a wonderful story about love, patience, and shared experiences. Grandpa describes what dementia feels like, while his granddaughter Michelle expresses her fears and shares her memories. Susan, his daughter, connects facts and storytelling to bring the family together. Written with sensitivity, this teaching tool will guide you through a conversation to encourage sharing and doing things together

"This is such a lovely story. It is a great tool for families learning how to navigate dementia. Well done." —David Wallstead "Having journeyed with family members who suffered from dementia, I greatly appreciate and recommend this book. Too often, dementia is still hidden away behind closed doors. This book recognizes there is a great opportunity for love and care when family members share in this experience with their affected loved one. Far from needing to be shielded from this illness, children can understand and bring much needed laughter, joy, and sharing of memories." —Dianne O.

As a mom, I read to my daughter as an opportunity to connect with her and pass on my passion for books. This passion led me to write children's books that are diverse in content, from very serious to very silly.
