This is a good book. I didn't realize it was a tiny, pocket book. At first I didn't like the size, but now feel it is great to tuck in my purse. It is well written and I might just buy a few more as gifts.

My mother had dementia so the catchy title attracted me. Basically, the book gave some upbeat tidbits for caretakers. I would recommend this book highly.
