You don’t just breathe in air. A load of dust, exhaust fumes and other rubbish goes in too. DNA gives instructions to the body to clean it all away. But what if those instructions aren’t working properly? Who does the cleaning then?

Written by a Biochemist, Teacher and Mum of two, My DNA Diary: Cystic Fibrosis simplifies the complex to explain, genetics, genes, chromosomes, cells, inheritance and disease with rich and vibrant illustrations complementing an age-appropriate text.

Education and inspiration for 9-12 year olds and their favourite adults.

A great book for kids with cystic fibrosis
Making a complicated illness understandable for young children is a difficult challenge. I'm amazed at how well the author did! The illustrations help tremendously and they are very well done. I honestly learned a lot from this book.

Although this novel is supposed to be for 9 to 12-year-olds, it's informative for all ages. The illustrations are wonderful, and the way the author explains DNA, genetics, and cystic fibrosis is refreshingly original.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enlightening
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2022
This book does a great job of explaining DNA and the inner workings of cells on a level that children can gain an appreciation for them. It uses characters and humor to bring out the concepts, and builds up to explaining what cystic fibrosis is and what causes it. A great resource for home or classroom use!

Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2022
I love books that teach children, and this one does just that. The author has other books in this series, and your children will learn great information. This one teaches about DNA: Cystic Fibrosis, and the illustrations are awesome.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Lot to Know About Cystic Fibrosis
Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2022
This was an interesting book. It explained the cause of Cystic Fibrosis, how it affects the body, why the genes might have mutated and what is being done about it. It explains a lot of commonly used vocabulary and illustrates it in a fun way.
