Book
This picture book was produced in response to the high prevalence of scabies in Indigenous communities in the north-west of Western Australia, particularly among young Indigenous children. The book uses colourful drawings and a story to explain the life cycle and treatment of scabies. The book was developed in consultation with school children and also comes with a DVD on the back cover.
