This is a good overview of what Leprosy is, and what treatments have been discovered. Aimed at upper elementary age readers. It has a glossary and sidebars explaining some of the terms used in the text.

A picture heavy, text light history of leprosy. Despite the shortness of the work, there is quite a bit of repetition. However, as there are not many other options- a nice enough start for investigators into this topic.

This one was on the new book cart I was looking at and it intrigued me. I ended up learning a lot.
