When the Stars Forget their Names: A gentle story about love, memory, and letting go

When the Stars Forget Their Names

A gentle book about love, memory, and holding on-even when it feels like letting go.
By Essie S. - Ghostwritten by Robb Conscious

Releasing in September to honor Dementia Awareness Month, this heartfelt picture book for adults is a love letter to everyone caring for someone whose memory is fading.

Whether you're a daughter sitting quietly beside your mother, a grandchild telling the same story for the fifth time, or a caregiver navigating the weight of presence-When the Stars Forget Their Names is for you.

Told through poetic, gentle prose and emotionally rich illustrations, this story follows GG, a once-bright light in her family's life, now slowly dimming with Alzheimer's. But even as her memories drift away, love remains.

This book isn't a guide. It's a comfort. A hug. A reminder that showing up matters, even when the one you love doesn't remember your name.

"Even when the stars forget their names...
They still shine.
And so does she."
