Series Review: Kids HealthHypothetical situations with fictional characters put readers in the moment and provide a solid foundation for comprehending these various conditions This approach, paired with the well-chosen photos and diagrams, makes the books informative for their intended audiences: children who suffer from the disorder and their friends, family, or classmates. Though frank about whether a disease has life-threatening aspects or no cure, Robbins maintains a comforting tone, reassuring readers that it is possible to lead active lives with proper attention to diet and guidance from parents and doctors.Joanna Fabicon, Los Angeles Public Library, School Library Journal
