Description

What's up with Poppo? is the heartwarming story about a grandfather and his relationship with his granddaughter as he battles ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). What's up with Poppo? follows young Jenny as she visits her Poppo on Sundays and begins to notice the physical changes in her grandfather as his illness progresses. The changes confuse and scare her. So she asks her mommy and daddy, "What's up with Poppo?" Her mother, reluctant at first to admit Poppo's illness, joins Jenny's father in answering Jenny's questions simply, honestly and in a comforting way, helping Jenny understand and adjust to the new ways her Poppo is different. During each passing visit, Jenny finds her greatest joy in dancing for her Poppo. With her innocence and love, she embraces her grandfather as he is now. Her parent's gentle guidance and support help Jenny to know that Poppo's love for her will never change. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the ALS Association.
