Chemo Girl, Saving the World One Treatment at a Time
This is a book written by a cancer patient, Christina Richmond, about a super hero named Chemo Girl who fights cancer cells in children’s bodies. She and her dog Broviac take on cancer by entering the body and fighting the cancer cells head on. This is an inspiring and incredible story that any pediatric cancer patient will love. The idea of chemo as a super hero is a great image for a pediatric patient to help them keep up hope and feel better about how difficult chemotherapy can be. The fact that it was written by a child will make it easy for other children to relate to. This is a great book to give a pediatric patient that may be facing chemotherapy as a part of their cancer treatments. It is a cute story that they can use to calm and relax themselves and they can think of Chemo Girl helping them fight their cancer cells.
