Our Mom Has Cancer

A humorous, honest, and hopeful account of the year that Abigail and Adrienne's mother underwent treatment for breast cancer.

Two sisters, ages eleven and thirteen, describe what it was like for them when their mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent surgery and chemotherapy.

Abigail and Adrienne Ackermann are siblings. They continue to share their experience with other children by doing book signings and readings, participating in cancer awareness events throughout the year, and appearing on TY and in print interviews. They live in Upper Marlboro, Maryland.
