[Answerland] Shared followup question on readers advisory

[Tamara Ottum]

Hello Answerlanders,

A patron is looking for our help:

"our patron is caring for a relative with advanced stage dementia. she is a former schoolteacher and is in her early eighties. television is a daily activity; we would like to reintroduce books into her life. attention span is limited so it is unlikely the reading material will "stick." adult coloring books have proved to be of no interest. can you recommend a bibliography of books for this type of patron? (we are open to juvenile literature). or, can you recommend any organizations who can provide assistance? we are interested in physical books that can capture or stimulate the imagination. thanks in advance for your assistance."

You can find this question in the Shared Followup list in QuestionPoint. (Look for question 12407981)
