Fran Lewis

    Fran Lewis put uit haar uitgebreide ervaring als onderwijzeres om verhalen te creëren die de complexe levensproblemen van kinderen onderzoeken. Haar verhalen, vaak gericht op een personage genaamd Bertha, benadrukken veerkracht en de uitdagingen bij het omgaan met moeilijkheden thuis en op school. Naast kinderliteratuur duikt Lewis in het gevoelige onderwerp van de ziekte van Alzheimer, waarbij ze inzichten en ondersteuning biedt aan ouderen en hun families. Door haar geschriften en radioprogramma's promoot ze geletterdheid en moedigt ze lezers van alle leeftijden aan zich te verdiepen in de wereld van verhalen.

Think about how you can make a positive difference in someone's life: Volunteer: Become A Caregiver. Learn how to protect yourself, your family and your children from Traumatic Brain Injury. Protecting the Elderly is so vital and important. Learn the Causes and Signs of Eldercare Abuse and help STOP IT! Use this book as your guide. This book is dedicated to two of the most amazing women in my life: My sister, Marcia Wallach who died from traumatic brain injury on July 8, 2010 and my mom, who made me strong, kind, responsible and caring: Ruth Swerdloff who passed away on March 7, 2010. My mom had Alzheimer's and many other heart related illnesses. She was my voice growing up and I was hers for the past 10 years. If I had to do it again I would. Special thank you to the nurses on 9 North and 8 North in Albert Einstein Hospital in the Bronx for taking care of my mom and showing such understanding and compassion to all of your patients. To Daria Smith the nurse case manager and Anne the manager on 8 North you are so special and thank you for understanding my mom's needs and helping me when I needed your assistance.
