Life with Grandpa (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

I wasnt very happy when Mum told me that Granny and Grandpa were coming to live at our house, which is in a little village in the country. When they lived in a big house near London, we used to go and stay. Granny would cook nice meals, and we used to go up to the middle of London sometimes and visit the London Eye and the zoo or the shops in the West End. But when Grandpa got dementia, Mum said they should come and live at our house as we had a self-contained two-bedroom flat they could live in. She said the last tenants were a nightmare. If Granny and Grandpa were living with us, she could help Granny keep an eye on Grandpa. What with not going to stay with them near London anymore and having extra people in the house, I wasnt really sure that was what I wanted.

Autorenporträt

Pat Pinsent has spent most of her working life as a university lecturer, specialising in childrens literature, the subject of most of her seventeen published books. This is her first venture into fiction, impelled by her husband suffering from Alzheimers, together with the realisation that in todays ageing society, many young people are encountering family members with dementia. Although several incidents in this book have been inspired by real situations, Debbie, the central child character, is not based on any of her eight grandchildren. Pat spends much of her time discussing books and history with groups near where she now lives in Norfolk, and playing the keyboard (badly!) to accompany some local singers. Her main function in life is to be a slave to her cat, Maddie, who seems to spend most of the time sitting on her lap!
