NNLM Reading Club brings awareness to Water this month as it plays such an important role in our lives. We interact with water in many ways, from drinking water, recreational activities, to weather and water management. We are pleased to be featuring three books that align with this topic so broadly. - Go as a River: A Novel by Shelley Read - Why We Swim by Bonnie Tsui - Superman’s Not Coming: Our National Water Crisis and What We the People Can Do About It by Erin Brockovich You will find an array of resources on our website from water safety, to water quality, teaching resources for children, to disaster preparation resources.

Every day, you have different experiences and you learn new things. Your brain cannot store all of that information, so it has to decide what is worth remembering. Memory is the process of storing and then remembering this information. Memory doesn't always work perfectly. As you grow older, it may take longer to remember things. Adults may worry about their memory and other thinking abilities, such as taking longer to learn something new. These changes are usually signs of mild forgetfulness — or age-related forgetfulness — and are often a normal part of aging. However, more serious memory problems could be due to other factors. Dementia is a general term that describes the loss of cognitive functioning or the ability to think, remember, and reason. Dementia is not normal forgetfulness. In recognition of #Alzheimer’s and #Brain Awareness Month in June, the NNLM Reading Club brings awareness to #Memory and #Dementia featuring three new books this month. - My Father’s Brain: Life in the Shadow of Alzheimer’s by Sandeep Jauhar - The Swimmers by Julie Otsuka - Remember: The Science of Memory and the Art of Forgetting by Lisa Genova Start the conversation by reading and discussing one of the selected titles. Then use the information resources to help you and your readers learn more. This information is available on our Reading Club website: https://lnkd.in/gWMh93WV
