A Kids Book About Cancer cover

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.

A Kids Book About Cancer features:

  • A large and bold, yet minimalist font design that allows kids freedom to imagine themselves in the words on the pages.
  • A friendly, approachable, empowering and child-appropriate tone throughout.
  • An incredible and diverse group of authors in the series who are experts or have first-hand experience of the topic.
