Abuela siempre me recordará
by Samar Mahfouz Barraj
Age Range: 6-8
Abuela siempre me recordará was included in the ‘Reading the Way’: Inclusive Books from Around the World Research (2015). The book is not available in English. OIW commissioned an English Translation and the book is referred to as My Grandmother Will Always Remember Me throughout the RtW Research. (Full report in the Education Zone of this website)
OIW believe that My Grandmother Will Always Remember Me deserves great credit for offering an insight into a subject rarely depicted in books (that of Alzheimer’s) as a young girl learns to understand how her grandmother’s condition has begun to erase her memory. The portrayal is sensitive and we welcomed the fact that it is a picture book for an older age group. However, there was a concern that the story was slightly over-long; it was felt that it would need substantial editing in order to ensure commercial and audience appeal in the UK.
