What's going on with Busha: A child's view of dementia in Bloomington, MN

In this heartwarming story, Laura uses her life experiences to help a child understand why his great-grandma is acting differently due to Alzheimer's. The brightly colored and detailed illustrations and words provide great talking points for adults to use to help explain to children how Alzheimer's can affect a child's relatives. The author demonstrates practical and loving solutions on how to help a loved one with memory loss that is caring and kind and keeps the affected loved one's dignity. As with Laura's previous books, the characters are birds with human characteristics. Using animals to help children understand life's mysteries is always a plus!
