Memory Care
We’re building a collection of dementia-friendly books. This collection is specially formatted reading materials with short text, simple layouts, and high-interest. Our collection includes fiction and nonfiction illustrated texts.
Nonfiction books are valuable for people with dementia. Books that contain scientific and medical information about dementia can build awareness of the disability’s impacts on health and wellbeing, while memoirs can offer a sense of how to navigate dementia from a clinical, interpersonal, and social standpoint. Biographies and other books about history are helpful to spark readers’ memories and provoke conversations about their own pasts.
