Caring for a loved one who is gradually losing their mental and physical abilities over time is one of the most challenging tasks.

Unfortunately, in our modern-day Western culture, we are conditioned to be self-reliant, independent, and often isolated.

He demonstrates how and why there is magic and enchantment that takes place between people and books.
