Help kids learn what cancer is, how we treat people who have it, and how to cope if we have someone in our lives suffering from it.

This is a kids’ book about cancer. As you may know already, cancer doesn't just affect those who have it; it affects their parents, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, and friends.

This book was made to give kids aged 5-9 a basic understanding of what cancer really is, and aims to make it easier to talk about for kids and grownups who may have someone in their life with cancer.
