Having good physical health is an important part of living a happy and productive life. But for many young people, conditions such as eczema can get in the way. People with this illness have flare-ups of dry, itchy skin. Fortunately, people with eczema can learn to manage their condition. This begins with a proper medical diagnosis, but it doesn’t stop there. Patients with eczema must learn what eases their condition— and what aggravates it. They may also have to deal with tough feelings such as frustration or embarrassment. Part of the Managing Common Illnesses series, Managing Eczema is a guide for young people who want to learn more about how they can help themselves feel their best both physically and emotionally, so their condition doesn’t keep them from living their best lives.

Reviews and Awards for Managing Eczema

"Gr 5-8–A look at a variety of common illnesses and the experience of living with them. At the start of most titles a known celebrity’s story is presented to normalize the titular condition. This explains how the illness impacts their lives and work, and how they manage themselves. Each illness is explained in detail with definitions, treatment processes, and common misconceptions. A combination of illustrations and photographs are used to show both the conceptual illnesses and real people like doctors.
VERDICT: An intermediate look at illnesses that readers might interact with every day. Libraries can make great use of this series."
