Our Mom Has Cancer

A book by kids to help your kids deal with cancer in the family When Abigail and Adrienne’s mom told them she had cancer, they were afraid. When the two sisters (then ages 11 and 9) couldn’t find any books for kids that explained what might happen to their mother and what they might expect, they decided to write one themselves. The result? Our Mom Has Cancer, a humorous, honest, hopeful account of the year their mother underwent treatment for breast cancer, delightfully illustrated with drawings by Abigail and Adrienne. “This is by far the best of several children’s picture books written about a parent with cancer. Because it is written and illustrated by two sisters, it conveys what kids want to know. It [shows] the passage of time during treatment, and it [shows] that people were loving and kind and hopeful in the midst of a rotten time . . . .This book is excellent, and I would recommend it to any parent who has been diagnosed with cancer.” --a mom from Cedar Rapids, Iowa
