Champ's Story: Dogs Get Cancer Too!

Children facing cancer¿whether their own, a family member¿s, a friend¿s, or even a pet¿s¿will find help in understanding the disease through this book. A young boy discovers his dog¿s lump, which is then diagnosed with those dreaded words: ¿It¿s cancer.¿ The boy becomes a loving caretaker to his dog, who undergoes the same types of treatments and many of the same reactions as a human under similar circumstances (transference). Medical writer and award-winning children¿s author, Sherry North artfully weaves the serious subject into an empathetic story that even young children can understand.
