This chapter provides a brief overview of various books and articles related to children with cancer and their families. Families facing a cancer diagnosis can gather information and find supportive resources in numerous ways. Organizations dedicated lo specific cancer diagnoses can be a useful resource to increase a family's initial understanding of the disease. Books and videos geared toward each member of the family are also widely available and useful for providing information or support in a developmentally appropriate and sensitive manner. When working with pediatric oncology patients and their families, guiding them through the many ways in which they can access information on disease and treatment options, supportive services, financial assistance, survivorship, and end-of-life care can be invaluable.
