A Day with Parkinson's

32 pp. | Whitman | May, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8075-5581-1 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Joanne Lew-Vriethoff. Noah's beach day with his mom and grandpa consists of riding bikes, swimming, building a sandcastle, and searching for seashells...but only once Grandpa's Parkinson's medication takes effect. Grandpa's frank answers to Noah's questions about the disease reassure Noah--and will also aid young readers' understanding of it (as do an appended doctor's note and talking points). Bright, playful illustrations reflect the sunny beach and close-knit family.
