<unk>  is a self-published children's book written by Australian author and anti-vaccine activist Stephanie Messenger. Through its story, the book claims, contrary to scientific data, that contracting<unk>  is beneficial to health, and that vaccines are ineffective. The book was first published in 2012, but came to attention in 2015 following a<unk>  outbreak that began at Disneyland during December of the previous year. Many commentators have criticised the book because of the dangers associated with contracting<unk> , and because its title is reminiscent of George's<unk>  Medicine, by Roald Dahl, who was a prominent advocate of vaccination in his later years, following the death of his daughter Olivia from<unk>  in 1962. The book has also received attention for the numerous negative reviews it has received on Amazon.com.
