Good Books Are Good Medicine

We Make Nostalgic Digital and Print Libraries for Soul-Tending

Welcome to NANA'S BOOKS

We are on a mission to provide elevated, high-interest books to elders; readers and listeners in life review, living with and without cognitive challenges.

Truly person-centered, NANA'S BOOKS utilize resonant large-format imagery and familiar verse to cue long-held memories.

NANA'S BOOKS use nostalgic moments on the road of life to re-activate 'core selves' and deeply meaningful conversation.

 

Our Companion Books Unite Generations with Nostalgic Art and Literature 

We believe that books have the power to connect hearts and minds, and build communities.

Our books are an invitation for people of all ages and cognitive abilities to feel seen and heard, valued and understood.

Just as bedtime stories and lullabies welcome the very young into the human community, poetry, prayer, and prose invite elders back with the comforting sights and sounds of the past.

 

We Put Dignified Adaptive Reading at Your Fingertips

Busy care partners know how hard it can be to engage people living with expressive language challenges.

Our extensive collection of 2000 pieces of unique content goes anywhere you do.

From restaurants, to medical appointments, air travel to home and residential care, NANA'S BOOKS puts the power of 40 books and 12 Café Readers' conversation starters in easy reach, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

 

We Are In the Spirit

At NANA'S BOOKS. We understand the elemental nature of faith and the life of the spirit. Our non-pharma approach to wellness has spiritual inspiration at its heart.  

With books to celebrate every faith tradition with redolent nature, soaring vistas, iconography, touchstones, and nostalgic holiday traditions, our collection awakens the spirit within.
