Description

From the award-winning author of THE BUBBLE BOY comes a heart-warming and unforgettable story that follows one boy’s search for the perfect family, with surprising and unexpected results. Perfect for fans of Onjali Q. Rauf and Lisa Thompson.

‘Friendship, laughter, suspense and more!’ – Ross Welford, author of TIME TRAVELLING WITH A HAMSTER and THE 1000-YEAR-OLD BOY THINGS MY PERFECT PARENTS MUST HAVE: 1. A mega mansion like the ones footballers live in 2. A garage wall with a basketball hoop 3.

No gerbils 4. Holidays to Disneyland All Sam wants is a family of his own, a home instead of a ‘house’ and parents he knows will still be there when he wakes up. Because Sam has been in and out of foster care his whole life and he can’t imagine ever feeling like he truly belongs.

Then his best friend Leah suggests that rather than wait for a family to come to him, he should go out and find one. So begins The Perfect Parent Project … But Sam may just discover that family has a funny way of finding you.

I've seen a lot of posts and information about dem I've seen a lot of posts and information about dementia recently. Some of you know my dad has dementia, so when I saw this lovely picturebook in the new titles list, I thought it would be useful to share it with you.
It's called The Forgettery, and it's a story about Amelia and her grandmother, and how they go an adventure to explore the Forgettery, where memories are kept.
It doesn't mention the word dementia, so it's a useful all-round story to help children understand when a relative or friend has dementia or memory loss.
