Eagerly awaited – a children’s book about Parkinson’s disease
From the back cover of the book: ”Traditional the grownups try to explain to the younger using grown up language. Mostly with poor result. In this book the author do it on the contrary. We follow the children and as we see through their eyes we can in a unique way share the same reality. The text and the illustrative pictures show how they experienced the first time with a dad who is, or at least behaves differently. This is one of few books written for children about such a serious matter as a chronic disease. In this case about a daddy with Parkinson’s. The experience from Sweden, where the book has been on the market a couple of years, shows that the book is as good as it ever can be not only for the kids, but even for their parents. The value of the book is not limited to families where someone has Parkinson’s. You can replace that disease with any other unexpected situation and still benefit from the book. Finally this book fulfills it’s matters by explaining that some people just are … different.” Comment by Leif Ogard - ” To me it is really an honour to be able to publish this children’s book . It’s a little book, but its genial in its simplisity. I am convinced that this little book will have a big and positive impact in quite a few families!” The secret to this? The author Mats Larson have put the children in the first room!” |
