What Happens When My Sibling Has Cancer

Sara Olsher

Mia and her stuffed giraffe Stuart explain the science of cancer and how a sibling’s diagnosis and treatment affects a child’s day-to-day life. What Happens When My Sibling Has Cancer uses bright and fun illustrations to show how cells can turn into cancer and helps reduce confusion about how cancer treatment affects the child and their siblings.

Aimed at families with kids ages 4 to 10, this book is for families that want to recognise the tough emotions that come from having a sibling with cancer.

Books can be ordered using the myRedkite online portal.
