Illustrated by David McPhail.
To help children understand how breast cancer affects not only their mothers but entire families as well, bestselling author Laura Numeroff and physician Wendy Harpham present 'The Hope Tree'.
Drawing on real-life experiences of children whose mothers have breast cancer, they imagined a support group where kids get together to share things like school, sports, books - and how they feel about their mum's illness. Throughout the book these kids describe their individual experiences and offer practical solutions for dealing with breast cancer.
David McPhail's cuddly animals reassuringly illustrate these stories of regular kids coping with a difficult time.
