Grandfather's Story Cloth / Yawg Daim Paj Ntaub Dab Neeg

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Stuart Loughridge. Ten-year-old Chersheng gets frustrated because his grandfather is forgetting more and more. Chersheng's mother brings out the story cloth her father made in a refugee camp, using it to remember Grandfather's past. The story, told in English and Hmong, is a helpful but somewhat heavy-handed introduction to both Hmong history and Alzheimer's disease.
