Publisher's Synopsis

When Peter Vance's grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease he was devastated. Although he was only fourteen years old he wanted to do something to help victims of this terrible illness. He decided to compile a book and, with the backing of the Alzheimer's Society, he wrote off to famous people around the world asking them what would be the one message they would pass on to their grandchild. A surprising number of people replied, from film stars and sporting heroes to writers and political leaders. The resulting collection is by turns wise, funny, moving and insightful.

'Take compassion as your keyword through life - and you'll stay close to goodness all your days' Michael Crawford
