This is one of a series of books for dementia patients (or those with Alzheimer's), camouflaged as a "real" book. A Sandy Shoreline is the perfect book for dementia patients who now struggle with long paragraphs and may have trouble following a story. It's so difficult when a book lover has to be given a children's book or one labeled as a book for dementia suffers; it takes away pride and self-confidence. This book - and others in this L3 series- are the answer, as they are specially formatted for dementia patients to follow along while appearing to be a 'real' book. Neither the title nor any text on or in the book states that the book is for dementia or any type of memory/cognitive problems. If your loved one is overwhelmed by 'normal' books but spry enough to feel offended with books labeled as dementia books or by being a children's book, this is the solution. This book is formatted with: A lovely "easy read" story without condescending childlike words. Perfect, slightly larger text (16x font). Short chapters. Short paragraphs. One extra space between each sentence to encourage the mind to take pause. One or two vivid color photos per each short chapter to give a visual clue to the subject matter without distracting the read. In addition, all books in this series have adult main characters that the reader will relate to. The Sandy Shoreline is the story of a woman discovers nature's treasures and wonderful sights along the beach. Each chapter brings another small treat. Readers will be able to feel as if they journeyed to the shoreline themselves, all wrapped up with a pleasant ending. It is an enjoyable and uplifting story with wording for adults (not childlike). Not only will you be giving a book that your loved one will be proud to have in his/her collection, you are also giving the gift of self-pride. "Exceptional series that promotes pride in book ownership for seniors with reading struggles. Happy, upbeat and superb short stories with remarkably vivid photographs." - Faye Dunningham If you have a loved one with Alzheimer's disease, dementia or senior reading troubles, this book is just what you've been looking for. Other books in this series include: Autumn's Display, Down by the Meadow, Three Things, What the Wind Showed to Me and A Dusting of Snow. THE SANDY SHORELINE brings us the story of a woman who longs to see the beach. Though she only plans to see the shoreline once again, she encounters some unexpected surprises. With the arrival of an unplanned tour guide and a couple of unforeseen stops, this will be one trip to the coast that she'll never forget. If you are an adult bookworm who is looking for an interesting read or a book lover that enjoys a book that can be read over and over, this book is for you. It is hoped that you find this book worthy of adding to your collection. Enjoy your read! Emma Rose Sparrow has dedicated herself to producing a line of books for Alzheimer's patients, those with dementia and seniors with reading troubles. The goal? To offer a wide range of 'easy read' books for those who have been bookworms their whole lives.  Seniors with memory issues and reading comprehension should not have to be given children's books or struggle with 'regular' books. There has to be an answer that allows our loved one to maintain pride in a book collection; and this is it. This goal has led to books in 3 levels that have NO text inside or on the cover specifying that they are for memory impaired individuals, Alzheimer's sufferers or others with reading problems. Level 1: "No Text" Picture Books Level 2: Picture Books with Short Text Level 3: Short Stories with 1 to 3 Photos Per Chapter
