Meanwhile, pertussis (whooping cough) seems to be making a comeback. This book provides important information about the causes and treatments of respiratory disorders.Diseases and disorders transform the experience of childhood, forcing kids to confront adult concerns that we wish they could avoid. The set Living with Diseases and Disorders provides reliable facts about some of the most significant chronic illnesses, while also offering reassuring tips and advice about how to manage the disorders and have the best life possible.
