A COMPLETELY NEW BOOK GENRE STIMULATES COMMUNICATION WITH PEOPLE WITH ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE

Lydia Burdick
Never hearing a parent’s voice again may be the wish of many teenage children, but it is a disturbing reality for the millions of grown children whose parents have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.

Communication with caregivers becomes little more than “yes” and “no,” and eventually ceases to exist at all.

But now, a powerful new tool for fostering communication with people with memory impairments caused by Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias is available. Conceived by author Lydia Burdick, The Sunshine on My Face — A Read-Aloud Book for Memory-Challenged Adults is not only a lifeline to more meaningful communication, but is also the first book in a completely new genre, the Two-Lap Book.™
