Rezension zu „Loose Connections “
A deeply touching story, Loose Connections gently explores how a young boy deals with his granny's increasing confusion...How Jake sorts through the complications of his life is tenderly and thoughtfully explored. -- Julia Eccleshare Love Reading A positive and realistic story, and one which would be excellent for introducing young people to the topic of dementia. It is also very relevant to the many young people in the position of being carers for older ones, and gives an insight into their lives. Parents in Touch The credible characters and the absorbing story line will hold the reader's imagination right through. Irish Examiner Despite the distressing nature of the main theme the book is written with a light touch. ... A compelling and at times moving short novel. School Librarian The author presents a convincing scenario and is particularly good at conveying the anger and frustration carers of patients with Alzheimer's and dementia can feel. Books for Keeps
