A poignant story about a granddaughter watching her grandmother's memory gradually deteriorate to the point that she can longer remember her or care for herself. A perceptive and touching story about unconditional love. ( )

This is an emotional story of a little girl noticing her grandma become more forgetful over time. As grandma exhibiting signs of dementia , she would sometimes forget the little girl's name. She misses the old time when her grandma would bake her favorite meal, fried chicken and biscuits. The little girl knew that her grandma cannot go back to how she used to be, so she decided to make grandma happy whenever she can. I love that the author uses forget me not flowers all throughout her book. I think it go quite well with her story line and the tittle of the book. ( )
