Aronson, David

Teaching Tolerance, v3 n2 p58-61 Fall 1994

Children with AIDS and their immediate families find the difficulties of confronting the disease compounded by the fear that friends and their communities will reject them. Childrens' stories illustrate the support schools can provide and the strengths the children can bring to help others understand the disease. (SLD)
