My Friend Jen: A Little Different

Award winning author, and publisher Jenica Leah is one of the UK’s leading sickle cell ambassadors. Living with sickle cell anaemia herself, she has battled with the many complications that come with the condition and has never let this hold her back. After undergoing total hip replacement surgery at the age of 25, Jenica Leah vowed to help others living with the sickle cell condition by being more open about her health and her journey, and by doing more to create awareness and get people talking about it. The My Friend Jen children’s book series is just one of the ways through which she does this.
