Amazon Description: This is a charming and beautifully illustrated picture book designed to comfort children with heart conditions and assist parents in explaining what to expect during a heart examination.

 

A trip to the Cardiology office or hospital can be a scary time for children and their families. Also, children with heart conditions often feel as though their heart is “broken” which makes them feel different. This is a delightful story which explains several cardiac examinations and reassures everyone that hearts can be fixed and the ability to love can never be taken away. 

Readers will follow Bear through a heart screening where he meets the following characters:

• Muriel the Physician Assistant (PA) who takes his blood pressure (BP) and directs his care

• Captain Eli who performs his electrocardiogram (EKG/ECG)

• Dr. Fish who performs his echocardiogram (echo)

• Sidney the stethoscope who listens to his heart(auscultation) and also serves as his friend and his guide

This is a heart-warming and a unique resource for parents, families, and friends of children who have cardiac conditions or require cardiac evaluation for any reason. It can be read out loud or put in the hands of young readers ages 6-10. However, the characters and message are so beautiful that anyone may fall in love. It is a perfect gift from the heart and a percentage of all proceeds are donated to children’s charities. 

 

Most days we post a link to a free (at time of post) Kindle download for kids/young adults. One of the most important things we can do as parents is read with our kids! Exposure to reading can help children with early literacy and pave the way for success in school (and beyond!) as they get older.

 

Our hope is that these posts will help keep your digital library fresh with new material perfect for bedtime reading with babies, toddlers, preschoolers, school-aged, and even teens. You do not need a kindle to download or read these books with your child, just download the Kindle App to your device, or use the Kindle Cloud Reader on your computer. Enjoy!
