Alice lives a peaceful life in Wonderland, surrounded by her parents, her dog Zebulon and her entire childhood world. Until one day, when Mum goes to Cancer Land… What is this mysterious and threatening land that the little girl has never heard of? Can she take Mummy back to Wonderland? With the help of her friend Alex, Alice will try to understand this disease Without frightening the reader (thanks to the poetry of Lisbeth Renardy’s subtle illustrations) or watering down the reality of cancer (through a text full of restraint but without ambiguity), this album with a painful but very topical subject, tries to explain this disease and helps children to come to terms with it and accept it. This moving and intelligent book is a precious friend in the relationship that patients and their entourage have with cancer.
