First Day of School Books for 5-8 Year Olds
Every year we look for the best books we can find for children with eczema. This year our theme is back to school for elementary school age kids. Our criteria: highly rated, or award-winning books with engaging illustrations and great stories.
Adolescents and Teens

Our guest, Dr. Miriam Santer, studies this topic at University of Southampton.
