Title: The Lemonade Club
Author: Patricia Polacco

Tracy’s best friend Marilyn just found out that she had Leukemia. She, her class, and teacher work together to support Marilyn through her trials of battling cancer. Tracy and Marilyn learn that their teacher has breast cancer. They form a group called the lemonade club where they meet after school to talk and provide encouragement for each other.
This story gives children an idea about what people with cancer go through. Children can read this book and have an idea of how to support their own friend who may be battling cancer. The plot line of the story is not very straight forward and jumps from one point to another that may be difficult to follow for some children.
