Riassunto

This poignant story from New York Times bestselling author Jason June and #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator Loren Long reminds us of the life-changing power of words and the ways we remember the ones we love who've been affected by Alzheimer's or dementia. Perfect for fans of Drawn Together and The Rough Patch.

Elijah loves spending time with his grandma Eleanor. She knows all the best words to answer tricky crossword puzzles and to tell the most beautiful stories to her family and friends.

Everyone calls her “Never Forget Eleanor” because she remembers every word she reads and person she meets. Lately though, Elijah has started to notice Grandma Eleanor forgetting little things.

So when Grandma Eleanor doesn’t show up for her Saturday story session, Elijah will need to find a way to use her favorite words and become the storyteller himself to bring her home.

How can a young boy help his beloved grandmother when her memories start to fade?

• A Heartfelt Grandparent-Grandchild Bond: Elijah and Grandma Eleanor share a special connection through tricky crossword puzzles and beautiful family stories.
• A Gentle Introduction to Memory Loss: When "Never Forget Eleanor" starts forgetting little things, her family must navigate the changes with love and patience.
• Social Emotional Learning: A touching model for kids on how to process complex feelings and find creative, loving ways to support a family member with Alzheimer's or dementia.
• A Resource for Families: Includes a heartfelt author's note, making it a perfect tool to open up conversations about illness, memory, and the enduring power of love.
