a nice book

I am a Mother who has a daughter with this disease. I found that she could relate to it because she is a soccer player, just like the character in the book. I appreciate Mrs. Melas for her work on the subject. best regards!

Great

I am 10 years old and have arthritis. I got this book and I could relate to it. I decided to have a sleep over just like Jennifer did so I could tell my friends. I give it 5 stars, it was GRRREAT!

Why can't Jennifer play soccer or jump rope? Any child with a chronic disease will relate to this young girl coming to terms with her diagnosis and treatment of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and the manner in which she shares this news with her friends.
