An Alphabet of Encouragement and Insight for Kids (and Kids at Heart!) With Cancer
Written by: Kim Martin
Illustrated by: Wend Boomhower
Have I mentioned how much I love Alphabet books? Well, I love them lots. This one was written and Illustrated by 2 people I grew up going to church with. It is an alphabet about Cancer, mostly giving encouragement and insight (best way to explain it, also written on the cover!). This is such a good book, and a great one to have in your home or in your classroom, especially if you know someone facing this trial. Visit the website, HairFairy.org for more information, and to order a book for yourself or classroom!
You will also notice on their website, the "Hair Fairy Project". What this is, is that on the day a child or young adult loses their hair, Mr. and Mrs. Hair fairy leave a gift, note, and this book for that child/young adult. I think this is a fantastic project, soo much love and caring goes into this. Cancer has not affected my immediate family as of yet, but I have seen it in other people's lives. Anything to make those affected smile or bring hope and happiness is such a wonderful thing. Donations are gladly accepted.
