ABOUT KATHRYN HARRISON
Business Professional turned Artist, Kathryn Harrison, wrote and illustrated her debut picture book, Weeds in Nana’s Garden in 2016 to help spread understanding of dementia among children. She was compelled to create this resource following her family’s own experience with her mother’s early-onset dementia. At that time, there simply weren’t many books available to explain dementia to her young children.
Since its publication, her book has won several awards and has been translated into multiple languages. In 2018, she collaborated with dementia care expert, Jaclyn Guenette, to launch another picture book about dementia, I Smile For Grandpa. Both of Kathryn’s children’s books encourage children to remain connected with family members that have dementia and support the Alzheimer Society of Canada with every purchase.
Currently, Kathryn is also a member of the management team running AlzAuthors.com, the internet's most comprehensive collection of written resources about Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia.
