Cancer survivors create a children's book about the disease to destigmatize and normalize conversations about cancer

Carmen Monge is the author of the book. She is a cancer survivor - diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2013 - and used her experience with the illness to generate the idea for creating this children's book. Carmen also is a self-employed nutritional product development consultant and runs a Youtube channel aimed at cancer survivors.

Heenah Pokun is a freelance children's book illustrator and a cancer survivor. She was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in 2013. She loves to use illustration, graphic design and typography to tell stories in a unique, visual way.
