Abstract:
This pamphlet, in the form of a comic book, informs us on
six common diseases, their symptoms and how the consequences
can affect a child's health and may even cause death.
It uses the story of a girl child who became susceptible to
one of these illness because she was not immunized. These
diseases include polio, tuberculosis, tetanus, measles, whooping
cough, diphtheria. It provides information on the Kenya Expanded
Program on Immunization (KEPI) clinics which Kenyans can visit
to immunize their children.
