Members Reviews:
Well written
It is very well written. Cancer is hard for an adult to understand and even harder for our children. God bless the author.
Great book in helping children understand cancer.
Good book for helping children understand Cancer. Helped my daughter with the transition of her grandmother loosing her hair during chemo.
A Stunning Resource for Children in Contact with Cancer
"Cancer Starts with C" is a beautiful book in every sense. It is written for the younger child, although I admit I enjoyed it myself!
The beautiful illustrations turn what could be a scary story into bedtime reading. It is a book that every child will love. Author Leticia Croft-Holguin received her diagnosis of aggressive cancer in her ninth month of pregnancy. She wrote this book to give parents a much-needed tool to articulate and explain the unsettling concept of cancer to their children. This book will help to prepare kids for some of the anticipated changes they can expect to see in their mommy or daddy, as well as open the door to meaningful communication between family members.
An unexpected bonus to this book is it comes with a code for an audiobook download. This is not yet available, but it is in the process, so I will be back to download that in a few weeks' time.
Well done, Leticia, for seeing the need for such an invaluable resource. I comment you, and I intend to pass this book on to parents doing battle with cancer, who have young children.
Cancer Starts With C
This is a wonderful book to help explain cancer to children for anyone facing the diagnosis of cancer. It walks a child through the diagnosis of cancer and the treatment options available. I liked how the author uses a knight to describe Chemotherapy and fairy dust to describe radiation, which should make these treatment options less scary for children. It's a valuable tool for families, doctors, nurses, and treatment centers that deal with cancer.

Great Book Really Explains Cancer to Children:
I really enjoyed reading this book. It clearly explains Cancer to young children in a friendly non-frightening manner. The illustrations are interesting and visually appealing to children. The author's personal cancer story is very compelling. I would definitely recommend this book.
