Five Star Review by Daniel D. Staats
Dr. Linda Holloway deals with the frightening issue of Sickle Cell Disease in her book for children-Little Miss Linda Speaks Out about Sickle Cell Disease. In the United States, SCD affects around 100,000 people. It is the most common inherited genetic disease in the US. This disease affects mainly those of African descent and others of Hispanic and Asian descent. Dr. Linda also gives excellent advice concerning how to help those with SCD. Too often, people don't know what to say or what type of help to offer someone with an unusual disease. Dr. Linda takes care of that problem in this book. Read this book and learn more about being compassionate to those struggling. As parents, use this book to open communication with your children about accepting those who are different or suffering.
