Children's author Jacques Vriens visited the Máxima today and agreed to a collaboration. Vriens is the author of the book 'Achtste groepers huilen niet' (Eighth graders don't cry), which was also filmed in 2012. Jacques will be actively involved with the children on our care floor in the coming years through, among other things, reading moments, theater performances and workshops.
Dr Rob Pieters thanked him on behalf of the Board of Directors, and a large number of copies of the books he has written, from toddler to adolescent (2-14 years), are now available in the Máxima library. He has even written a personal message in a number of the books.
