Spark Ling

My Dad and Lupus

My dad is the best in the whole world. And my dad has lupus. In this warm, rhyming picture book, a child explains in their own loving voice what lupus is, how Dad's own defenses turn against his healthy body by mistake, what his daily care looks like, and the parts that are honestly hard, like a flare that leaves him achy and tired. This gentle story also holds the truths a worried little heart needs most: I can't catch it, it's not my fault, and it doesn't change one bit how much Dad loves me.
