Loved Ones with Cancer
Loved Ones With Cancer covers the basics of cancer, what people with cancer might experience, loving someone with cancer, and showing love for others and yourself. Loved Ones With explores what it's like to watch loved ones go through unique and often difficult circumstances. Written in kid-friendly language, this social-emotional learning series supports readers' empathetic understanding of these experiences not only for their loved ones, but also for themselves. Guided exploration of topics in 21st Century Junior Library's signature style help readers to Look, Think, Ask Questions, Make Guesses, and Create.
Booklist
The Loved Ones With series (6 titles) tackles difficult topics with a straightforward approach. This book provides brief, factual information about what cancer is, what might happen to a person with cancer, and what treatment might be like. In the same way that they discuss cancer cells and issues like hair loss, the authors address feelings children may experience when a loved one has cancer and how to deal with those feelings. The book is explicitly for children with family members or friends who have cancer, not those who have cancer themselves. Adults should be aware that the book does mention death as one possible outcome of cancer, though it does not dwell on it. This is not a fun book, but it’s a helpful resource for those who need it.
