A Special Kind of Different is a children's book that was written to help children dealing with Juvenile Arthritis. Arthritis is not a word you see related to children so there is much misunderstanding and confusion. This book will take you on the journey of a brother and sister and their family as they discover what JA is , how to deal with it, and how to manage as a family. It is positive, honest and informative and woven into the daily lives of a normal family that is not aware that kids get arthritis too. This book will help families and children that have to deal on a daily basis with a major health issue. Through their journey you learn the importance of family, and understanding. From diagnosis to living with disease, this book will help bring patience and understanding about living with a disease.
