This is one of a series of books for dementia patients (or those with Alzheimer's), camouflaged as a "real" book. A Sandy Shoreline is the perfect book for dementia patients who now struggle with long paragraphs and may have trouble following a story. It's so difficult when a book lover has to be given a children's book or one labeled as a book for dementia suffers; it takes away pride and self-confidence. This book - and others in this L3 series- are the answer, as they are specially formatted for dementia patients to follow along while appearing to be a 'real' book. Neither the title nor any text on or in the book states that the book is for dementia or any type of memory/cognitive problems. If your loved one is overwhelmed by 'normal' books but spry enough to feel offended with books labeled as dementia books or by being a children's book, this is the solution. This book is formatted with: A lovely "easy read" story without condescending childlike words. Perfect, slightly larger text (16x font). Short chapters. Short paragraphs. One extra space between each sentence to encourage the mind to take pause. One or two vivid color photos per each short chapter to give a visual clue to the subject matter without distracting the read. In addition, all books in this series have adult main characters that the reader will relate to. The Sandy Shoreline is the story of a woman discovers nature's treasures and wonderful sights along the beach. Each chapter brings another small treat. Readers will be able to feel as if they journeyed to the shoreline themselves, all wrapped up with a pleasant ending. It is an enjoyable and uplifting story with wording for adults (not childlike). Not only will you be giving a book that your loved one will be proud to have in his/her collection, you are also giving the gift of self-pride.
