Uncle Larry's Wacky Adventure: Fun, Friends, and Finding Words!

Uncle Larry's Wacky Adventure: Fun, Friends, and Finding Words! A Whimsical Journey Through Frontotemporal Dementia is a heartwarming children’s story about love, imagination, and the unbreakable bond of family. Every summer, five cousins—Liam, Kennedy, Morgan, Peyton, and Kylie—visit their Uncle Larry, who is full of laughter, joy, and whimsical tales from his past. But this summer, things feel different.

When the cousins discover a dusty photo album in the attic, they’re swept into magical adventures from Uncle Larry’s childhood. Each photo brings them to a new place and time—full of fun, challenges, and meaningful lessons. As Uncle Larry’s words fade, his stories, love, and laughter shine even brighter.

This gentle and uplifting book helps children understand dementia in an age-appropriate way while celebrating empathy, family connection, and the power of memories that live forever in the heart.

Perfect for ages 6–10, families, and classrooms, Uncle Larry's Wacky Adventure: Fun, Friends, and Finding Words! A Whimsical Journey Through Frontotemporal Dementia encourages children to meet memory loss with patience, kindness, and wonder.
