What customers say about the book
Great book explaining vitiligo
"As someone who has suffered with vitiligo for the last 10 years, I thought this would be a good book to teach younger kids what the disease is and to be more accepting of it on themselves or others. I liked the magical land of skin city that the author created and the illustrations were done really well."

"Great book for kids! It helps to understand vitiligo in a kid friendly way. My toddler loves Mila, who lands in skin city to find out what is happening in her skin, that makes a white patch appear on her face. The book helps with self-awareness and self-acceptance, teaching kids to be kind to others, and that’s what we need in this modern world. The illustration is cute too, that’s an added bonus :)"
