Remember Me by Margaret Wild & Dee Huxley


Book description


A touching story between a grandma and granddaughter describes the grandma is getting older and her memory is failing. She begins forgetting her house, handbag, key, milk and other things. When she gazes at her lovely granddaughter, she is afraid of not knowing who she is. 

Evaluation

This story tells us that when people get older, they will gradually forget small things and  unimportant things. It seems very normal to old people, and young people might not be aware of their feeling. We might think old people are always nagging and irritating and repeating the same thing, but how many of us understand them why they are doing that? 

I know it is too early to talk about getting old, but I fear to see my wrinkles on my face, my teeth are torn,  what else?? and my body skin and muscles are not firm (touch my hands and the skin is very dry now). When I think at that point, I would rather DIE. 

BUT, I am learning to accept this fact and try to think it positively. I decided to enrich my life experience, and I could share my different stories with my next generation by the time I am "old". And they will be PROUD of myself. I want a granddaughter just like in the story.
