Great book for preparing kid for ear tube surgery! by Debra Rose (New Hampshire)  5 Stars
February 03, 2010
My daughter liked this book. It was easy for her to understand and explained the process without scaring her. It really helped to prepare her for ear tubes surgery. I also read her "Chris gets ear tubes". I recommend both of these books for kids going through surgery.

Great intro to child's hospital experience by Mother of Two (Bay Area, California) 5 Stars
July 06, 2009
I bought this for my daughter in anticipation of her tonsil surgery. She loves it and still loves it. She likes looking for the little duck hidden in the pictures. Very cute and does the trick of showing them what to expect.

Great even for a toddler by Beccaboney (Washington, DC) 5 Stars
January 27, 2007
This is one of those 'easy reader' books that come out of England, I believe, but it works well for a "read to me" book also. We have a ton of these, this particular one was great for when my 3.5 year old son was going in for same day surgery. The pictures look more English than American (i.e. my son asked what that THING was on the nurses' head - a nurses' cap) but overall these books do a great job at just explaining what is going on, with real people. Much like a picture book, and nothing offensive or scary about it.

A MUST-HAVE if your child to going to the hospital by Robin Mcintosh (Oklahoma City, OK) 5 Stars
October 10, 2005
When my son was going to have tubes put in his ears and his Adnoids removed, we purchased this book. He was just barely 3 years old, but this book explained on HIS level everything that was going to happen to him (from the little boy's ear first hurting, to everything that happens at the hospital before and after the surgery).
We took the book to the hospital and he pointed out to me where in the book it showed each step as they happened to him (ex. nurse taking his temperature). The book did this so well, and my son was so calm, the doctor decided he didn't need to give him the normal shot of something to calm him down. They just carried him down to surgery.
He just turned 4 and we are having to remove his tonsils this next month. He is reading the book again and loving it. Even though the procedure is not the exact same as the one the little boy in the book has, it has been very easy to replace ear ache with sore throat. EXCELLENT BOOK

Bright and cheery for very young readers by Ann Burney (Oklahoma)  4 Stars
January 10, 2000
This book is about a boy who goes into the hospital for a one night stay after an ear operation. The pictures and words are bright, cheery and comforting to young readers. My daughter liked to read this book even after her hospital stay. It was written in England so it shows hospital scenes (like children in group wards) which didn't apply to my daughters stay. I pointed out differences between what would and did happen to her. A good book to show a very young child what going to the hospital will be like and that it isn't as scary as it might seem.
