Helps children understand their parent's Hepatitis C

When an adult gets Hepatitis C, the symptoms are often vague. Tiredness, irritability, and mood changes are more difficult to explain than something concrete and visible like a broken leg. Sometimes the treatments make the parent more depressed. In the absence of good understanding, the child may blame herself or her parent. This book describes a young girl whose mother has Hepatitis C. The story is clear and straightforward. It does a good job of explaining the illness and showing that the mother loves her child even when she is feeling ill. However, the plot is fairly plain, and the characters do not come alive. I have recommended this book to mothers and fathers who are dealing with hepatitis C.

serves a real need

It is a great book. Touching, real, and affirmative.

A Wonderful and Much Needed Resource

Hedy Weinberg, Shira Shump, and Dr. Everson have done a wonderful job with a very difficult subject to address with children.I think this book is a wonderful and much needed resource for helping adults explain hepatitis C in terms that children can understand.Carole W.
