Grandad’s Star cover

What if your guide to the cosmos starts to lose his way?

Fascinated by her grandad, a famous astronomer, a little girl could listen to his star stories for hours. But one day he starts to forget the constellations and eventually he can’t even remember her name. Discover how love can reach across galaxies whether stars shine brightly or grow dim.

“A tender and sensitive treatment of dementia and its impact on a family – and on the little girl who so admires her famous grandad.” – The Letterpress Project

"I read this with my daughter (7) whose grandad has Alzheimer’s disease, and it eased us beautifully into talking about him and his interests and how well he remembers her.” – Amazon customer review
