“Once again the author & illustrator duo, Nusser and Saleha, have brought us a beautiful story of love, joy, grief and loss. Grandparents form the backbone in children’s lives; and while time spent with them brings immense joie de vivre and wisdom, there is also Nusser learning through realities of illness, caregiving and bereavement. The Memory Box is a tender narration of a boy’s navigation through his Dada’s illness manifested as loss of memory and gradual withdrawal of the person he once was. It invites children to sit with sorrow, and find solace in meaningful caregiving gestures. The book is also a visual delight!”
