Someone you know has MS: A book for families
About the resource
A story about Michael and his family explains MS and explores children’s fears and concerns. For children, 5-12.
Note to parents: Not all the issues identified in this booklet will be relevant to your family’s situation. Because MS is so variable and each family is unique, you may want to personalise this booklet when you read it with your child.
