I use print outs of Aesop's Fables you can find on google! Hopefully this helps :)

Chicken Soup for the Soul books have always been a hit.

Hi Emily

I like the Aesops fables too

Hi Jennifer

Welcome to Golden Carers

You will not be disappointed with this group

There are many intelligent creative members here

I always used the chicken soup for the soul stories

I think the shorter stories are best

It is important to be excited and engaging when reading a story

Let the residents give their opinions about aspects of the story

You can use many types of short stories as long as you make it interesting and exciting for the residents

Golden Carers has short stories you can use

Fables are great, also Sufi moral stories with Nasrudin, the holy fool.

I have found Limericks great for reading time and dementia so I bought Eduard Lear's collected works. The greatest thing is that they are short and can be printed big for residents to read aloud.

I also have a book of Irish History (I work in Ireland) written for tourist with very short chapters that I use.

Thank you Elisa

where do we get the chicken soup for the soul stories please and thank you
