When Your Teacher Has Cancer: Helping Children Cope in the Classroom and Beyond

by Maryann Makekau, Derek Makekau (Illustrator), Amaryllis Sanchez-Wohlever (Introduction)

Cancer is a sneak. It shows up uninvited, seeking to wreak havoc in bodies, families, schools and workplaces. It arrives unexpectedly and demands immediate attention at the expense of everything else. Cancer wants to have the last word, and sometimes it does - unless hope meets it head-on. Originally created for teachers, this Little Pink Book is finding its way into the hands of young and old, inside and outside the classroom - providing hope for those diagnosed and their loved ones, fighting the fight together. "In love's service only the wounded teacher can serve as a true teacher and healer." Bernie Siegel MD, author of Faith, Hope & Healing and Love, Medicine & Miracles.
