"It's a What about me? book"--Cover.

Mia's toy giraffe, Stuart, likes routine, and knowing what will happen every day. A cancer diagnosis can turn normal life topsy-turvy, so Mia explains in simple language, accompanied by effective and often humorous illustrations, what cancer is, how it's treated, and how daily life can change. The changes portrayed are those which impact most on a child's life, such as disruptions to the school run, a parent's lack of capacity to join in with games and family events, and the physical changes that cancer and its treatment can produce. By demystifying these changes and showing how a new routine can be established around cancer treatment, this book is aimed at reassuring anxious children.
