Synopsis

The second book of the Nurse Ted series aims to help parents or other family members who have cancer explain their diagnoses and treatment to their children and provides a reassuring way to present information in an easy-to-understand format.

"What a great book! I work as a children's counsellor, supporting them when their parents are diagnosed with cancer and other life-limiting illnesses. This book would have been so useful to have. It explains treatment in terms that a child can understand, and will be a wonderful resource to have in my kit bag!" Julie Cole, Family Services Manager, The Fountain Centre.

"The Nurse Ted books continue to provide invaluable advice for children, parents and their families. It's a great way of introducing a complicated subject and providing an opportunity to explore some of the issues faced by people when a loved one is unwell. I would recommend the latest Nurse ted book to anyone going through this difficult experience." The Right Honourable Anne Milton MP for Guildford.

"It is great and nice to see a generic book for children, not having to think of the diagnosis before offering something for parents to use with their children is great. Great illustrations. As a drop-in information centre we support a lot of parents who are going through cancer treatments and want to know how best to inform their children. This is an excellent resource." Karen Holmes, Centre Nurse Manager at the Cancer Support Centre in Sheffield.

"I loved the illustrations, the imaginary characters on real backgrounds. Clear, age appropriate explanations of diagnosis, treatment and side effects. The emotional impact on children and the support, love and openness that they need is well covered as well. It would be great if all young children coping with the diagnosis of cancer in a loved one could benefit from this book. Really helpful for parents as it makes explaining the complicated bits so much easier. Thoroughly recommended." Sarah Holmes MBE. www.nurseted.com
