Other Words for Nonno
On their weekly walks, Jill and her Nonno love to play with words. “Hummingbird,” says Jill. “Sugar-drinker,” says Nonno. “Seaplane,” says Jill. “I do see a plane!” replies Nonno. But one day, Jill notices Nonno is acting differently. He isn’t interested in their usual game and simply repeats what Jill says. When Jill asks her mother what’s wrong, her mother says Nonno isn’t running out of words, he just can’t always find the words he’s looking for. Is there anything Jill can do to help? This book is about making time for those we love and finding our own way of helping them, even when it seems like there’s nothing we can do. The book ends positively, with a message of hope. An excellent choice for children with relatives experiencing memory loss, this book contains strong curriculum ties to social-emotional learning.
