Illustrated by
Owen Swan.
When Georgie visits her grandfather in a nursing home, she hopes he'll remember her. Instead, he is lost in his own memories of long ago...until she suggests making newspaper hats, an activity he does remember. This gentle intergenerational story about familial love and memory loss, quietly illustrated with soft watercolor and pencil drawings, may be comforting for children in similar situations.
