Watching someone you love slip away due to Alzheimer's is devastating, especially for young children who don't really understand. It's tough to find a book on this topic for kids that is hopeful and still realistic, but this one works. Emma and Pop have been tap-dancing together since she was old enough to walk.

Emma's favorite thing to do is dance with her grandfather but as he ages, she and her family must learn to cope with his forgetfulness. Do his feet remember how to dance? I wonder about this book's appeal...perhaps limited since there is a lot of tap dancing to establish the relationship between Emma and her grandfather.
alzheimers - a grandpa cannot always remember how to tap dance, but his granddaughter is able to help him remember some days
Good book. Sad :( But it will also be helpful to introduce children to the fact that older relatives may become forgetful.
I love this story! It is touching and adorable. I love the illustrations.
Rosa's Pop taught her to tap before she could walk.
