What’s Happening to Grandpa? is a gentle, beautifully illustrated story that helps children understand a grandparent’s journey with Alzheimer’s disease. Told through the perspective of a young girl, the book explains memory loss and the emotional shifts that come with dementia in a way that feels warm, simple, and reassuring. It encourages families to talk openly about what’s happening and reminds readers that love and connection remain even when memories fade.
For caregivers, this story highlights something easy to overlook: dementia impacts the whole family, especially the youngest members who may not have the words to understand it. Caregiverlist supports caregivers by offering tools and insights that help them communicate compassionately and create calm, supportive moments for seniors and their loved ones. Caregiving isn’t only about tasks—it’s about helping families stay connected through every change.
