University Libraries Promotion and Tenure Recognition

This book has been for me the gold standard for how to study children with illness, in a manner that is truly child-centered and culturally situated. Add to that the fact that its author, Myra Bluebond-Langner, has become an important mentor and force in developing the field of children's studies in the United States.

On behalf of Myra's inspired and inspiring book, and the children she represents with grace, please place a nameplate in this book on the occasion of my attainment of tenure.
