The Dot Method - an interactive tool to teach kids about cancer Paperback - 2024

The Dot Method is the first in The Method Workbooks series-interactive resources created by child life specialist and therapist Kelsey Mora to help adults guide children through life's most difficult topics with honesty, clarity, and care.

More than 20 million people worldwide are affected by cancer-and many children are impacted in ways adults don't always expect. The Dot Method is designed for children with any cancer connection, whether it's themselves, a sibling, parent, grandparent, or another loved one.

Using clear visuals, simple language, and a structured workbook format, The Dot Method makes complex medical information understandable and emotionally manageable for kids. It includes:

• A "how-to" caregiver guide for supportive conversations
• A child-friendly glossary of cancer-related terms
• Pages that explain what cancer is, common treatments, and side effects
• Activities to explore emotions, identify support systems, and build coping skills

Written by a dual-certified Child Life Specialist and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, The Dot Method is a tool to help adults and children navigate cancer together-with honesty, connection, and care. Learn more at themethodworkbooks.com.
