About this audiobook
HOW CAN YOU LOVE SOMEONE AND RESENT HIM AT THE SAME TIME?
Jake Moon used to love the time he spent with his grandfather, Skelly, but that was before Skelly got Alzheimer's disease. All of a sudden, it's as if Skelly is the kid, and Jake has to be the grown-up. Much of Skelly's care becomes Jake's responsibility, and that doesn't leave much time for a life of his own.
Then, one day Jake rebels, and the unthinkable happens. Has Jake discovered too late how much his grandfather still means to him?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Jake Moon loves his grandfather Skelly, who has practically raised him since he was a baby. But when Skelly's diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, Jake doesn't quite know how to respond. Barbara Parks moving story of a young boy, grappling with the tremendous sense of loss, brought on by this horrible illness, is touching.
