The aim of Stickman Rules!- Let's DO Well is to provide children with a resource for all the tricky questions they may have concerning cancer. Being such a scary word and not something that people talk about freely, children can sometimes become quite fearful when someone they love gets sick. Children are amazing at being able to process the truth and Stickman Rules! - Let's DO Well is about allowing them to have those difficult yet important conversations. This is done through the use of two lovable characters, Stickman and Pitman. Stickman's very simple yet respectful explanations, takes Chloe and Freddie on a journey of self expression, courage and personal responsibility. The author, Terry Hawkins, remembers when her own father was diagnosed with lung cancer, it was almost taboo to talk about it. It was very confusing for herself and her family, especially when he lost a lot of weight and was required to stay in hospital for long periods of time. Let's Do Well! is for all of us in learning how to express our grief and taking responsibility for our own wellness. Let's Do Well has been produced to support Tour de Cure, Australia's leading cycling foundation. Tour de Cure has so far raised over $4 million in cash contributions towards research, support and prevention of cancer in men, women and children. The author is proud to donate all her royalties to curing this indiscriminate, stubborn and obnoxious disease.
