Ordered this for my baby brother who is 10 years old. I am 34. Our mom was being treated for non-invasive breast cancer. He was very stressed and asked for some books to explain what was happening. I did not get to read the book, but my mom said my brother found the books very helpful. Both he and my mom are doing much better now.
