The book helps both children and adults to recognise how their actions can impact in different ways. As a whole, the book presents themes of: love patience care understanding adventure The book is inspired by the author's grandad, who was diagnosed with dementia in his later years. The illustrations within the story are created by photographing hand-made puppets and sets, made with love. Making this an unusually gorgeous and intriguing picture book like no other! With full-colour vibrant pages throughout. 10% of profits will be donated to Alzheimer's Society.
