About the Author

Award winning author, and publisher Jenica Leah is one of the UK's leading sickle cell ambassadors. Living with sickle cell anaemia herself, she has battled with the many complications that come with the condition and has never let this hold her back. After undergoing total hip replacement surgery at the age of 25, Jenica Leah vowed to help others living with the sickle cell condition by being more open about her health and her journey, and by doing more to create awareness and get people talking about it. The My Friend Jen children's book series is just one of the ways through which she does this.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Children's Book!!!

    My friend Jen is a wonderful book that shows children who live with invisible illnesses such as sickle cell that it's okay to be different. It's very educational to all children and I love the vivid illustrations. Well done!

    Just what I was looking for. Good for kids, starts with a brief description of what sickle cell is how it affects Jen, but in the end she's just like everyone else, all while rhyming. Only small critique is that I wish it was hard cover to withstand multiple years and multiple reads.

    I was so excited to get my hands on this book and I was not dissappointed. My friend Jen is very easy to read as the words are simple and the rhyming makes it so much fun! At the same time it educates the reader about a serious matter - and with just enough detail for the younger readers so that it's not too 'heavy'. I cannot wait to share Jen's story with the little ones. Well written!!

    A lovely story, easy to read and understand for little ones. This should go a long way to helping them realise that some children are a little special but they do not need to be excluded from activities. I hope that it will help to stop bullying and would love to see other books dealing with other needs. Should be in every school and library.

    This is one of my youngest daughter's favourite books. Maybe because she's a fellow sickler, or maybe because she can 'see' herself in the book with a black girl as the main character. Either way, we enjoyed how Leah incorporated information about sickle cell disease without it sounding like a science lesson.
