Hi all,
I hadn't realised Val had sent this to lis-medical (I got it on a local
list).
I suggested www.healthybooks.org.uk a site prepared by Elizabeth
Schlenther MCLIP down in Bath that presents books appropriate for
children with all manner of health / welfare issues. It includes a
section specifically on moving house.
It really is an excellent resource.
Cheers
Alan

Dear Val,
Not really about grandma moving, but a nice book about moving house is
'Moving Molly' by Shirley Hughes. There's a review on Amazon but it
looks as if it's out of print - there are some second-hand copies on
Amazon.
