The Picture Book of Flowers: A Gift Book for Alzheimer's Patients and Seniors with Dementia - Sunny Street Books

\nDo you sometimes find it difficult to engage your loved one with dementia? To help them stay calm in the midst of an emotional reaction? To find activities you can share with them that encourage peaceful interaction? \n \nThis book can help. \n \nThumbing through this beautiful picture book with your loved one is an activity that will capture their attention, engage their mind, and encourage them to relax. They'll see flowers they recognize, as well as other more exotic varieties that will delight them. The names of the flowers are at the top of each page in large-print text. \n \nYou'll find a lot of other picture books out there, mostly for kids. But it's demeaning for seniors to give them books meant for children. And adult photography books are usually large and heavy, and they often include long, frustrating paragraphs of text. \n \nAt Sunny Street Books, we design books specifically for seniors with dementia. They're lightweight yet high-quality, adult in nature, with nothing to distract your loved one from their enjoyment of the photos themselves. \n \nFamilies, caregivers, and assisted living staff can share this book with the people they care for. It is also an excellent activity for seniors with Parkinson's disease or recovering from a stroke. Seniors with eyesight or strength challenges who find it difficult to hold a heavy book or read long paragraphs of text will also enjoy this book. \n \nFEATURES \n \n- Beautiful Content \n \nThis book is filled with carefully-curated, full-color, high-resolution photos of flowers. \n \n- Minimal Text \n \nThe only text included in the book, except on the title and copyright page, is the name of each flower. \n \n- Manageable Size \n \n This is a 40-page, 6 x 9 softcover that's comfortable to hold and easy to tuck into a bag. \n \n- High Quality \n \n The quality of this book's cover and its interior design are indistinguishable from books created for other readers. Just because a book is simple and uncomplicated doesn't mean it has to be unattractive, unprofessional, or childish. \n \n- Discreet Packaging \n \nAt no time is anything mentioned about Alzheimer's disease, dementia, or any other challenges the reader might be facing. This book can be given to your loved one without fear that they might feel embarrassed or offended. \n \nNOTES FOR CAREGIVERS \n \n- Sit beside your loved one in a quiet place that is free of distractions. \n \n- Allow them to hold th
