Who We Serve
People living with dementia have a whole life of identity, memory, and meaning to draw from. NANA'S BOOKS honors that life — offering dignified, nostalgia-rich reading experiences designed for pleasure, curiosity, and personal connection on their own terms.
Our compassionately designed books invite memory-sharing, self-expression, and reflection — fostering genuine independence, belonging, and authentic participation in community life. Whether read alone or shared with a care partner, they create opportunities for the connection and contribution that are at the heart of true well-being.
You'll find us in: home; respite and hospice care; pastoral and spiritual care settings; skilled nursing care; residential care communities; adult day centers; hospitals; memory cafés; senior centers; libraries; museums; intercultural and faith communities.
Nostalgic Engagement Supports Well-Being
Nostalgia Works!
Robust evidence confirms what many have long suspected: sharing personal histories and engaging with nostalgic images, symbols, sounds, and sensory impressions profoundly supports individual well-being.
From enhancing coping and adaptation to fostering joy, and even moments of transcendence, nostalgic engagement serves as powerful, positive medicine.
