About The Care of Papa: The Adventures of Little Weddles
Every Saturday, Samuel visits his Papa — and every Saturday, Papa knows him a little less. But Little Weddles, the wiggly white puppy, doesn’t wait to be remembered. He races straight to Papa’s chair, curls in his lap, and fills the house with joy the way only a little dog can.
As Samuel watches, he learns the gentlest truth of all: Papa forgot his name… but not his hand. Love doesn’t live in remembering — it lives in a squeeze, a hummed old song, a warm afternoon together. A tender picture book for any family loving someone through dementia or Alzheimer’s — and for the children who love them best of all.
Ends with a short note for parents and caregivers, and rests on a quiet promise: “Even to your old age… will I carry you.
