Children, just like adults, often have questions about cancer, particularly when the illness is in their own family. A Day With Dr. Waddle was written and illustrated by staff members of the Cancer Center at Kansas State University to help children understand cancer. Your day with Dr. Waddle begins in a research laboratory where Dr. Waddle, a friendly duck, who just happens to be a scientist, explains that cancers are diseases of cells. Dr. Waddle describes a cell and tells how scientists do research, like detectives, to find clues to diseases like cancer. A Day With Dr. Waddle is a coloring book and a workbook with puzzles to solve, and ends with six good health habits for children to follow. . Although originally designed for children ages 7 - 10, Dr. Waddle is popular among all age groups. Our hope is that by educating children about cancers we can help alleviate the fears and misconceptions associated with these diseases.
