Product Description
Featuring six real x-rays printed on mylar, Jessica's X-Ray is a unique and fun look inside our bodies and the world of x-rays written by a professional x-ray technologist who has worked extensively with children. In the book, kids follow Jessica, who has broken her arm, as she tours the hospital seeing x-ray rooms and looking at actual x-ray, CAT-scan, MRI and ultrasound images. These real x-ray images are printed on mylar so readers can see firsthand what Jessica sees. An identification key at the end of the book also helps kids pick out bones and muscles on their own. |

My 5 yr old niece LOVED this book when she broke her arm by Wendy Carter  4 Stars

When my 5 yr old niece broke her arm, I bought her this book and she really liked it a lot. Made her feel "special" and thought all the xrays in the book were really neat

Great Little Book by SPC (Ireland) 4 Stars
August 30, 2009
My 4 1/2 yr old daughter was due for an x-ray and ultrasound appointment at the hospital for a routine protocol procedure to rule out a pathology ... and as it was her first appointment for any kind of scan / x-ray, I wanted to explain the procedure, how it works, that she had to lie still and what it looked like afterwards. This book provides copies of real x-rays and has a simple story line which makes it easy to understand & reassuring to children ... and takes away the anxiety of "the unkown". I found it a very useful little book and she was amazed at the black & white x-rays depciting real life cases.

Excellent Book by K. Herrald (Las Vegas, NV) 5 Stars
January 05, 2007
As a teacher, it is very hard to find books when we learn the letter 'x' in class. The story is great and the xrays that come with the story are awesome. The kids absolutely love them. Excellent purchase.

Jessica's X-Ray by Allison (Canada) 5 Stars
January 20, 2004
This book is an amazing learning tool for kids and adults. Anyone could find useful information in Jessica's X-Ray. For kids though, the real X-ray's that you find within the book allow kids to become intrigued and raise there level of interest in the subject matter. I would recommend this book to anyone but especially children who might need any sort of X-ray, there is no doubt in my mind that it would ease their worries and facilitate a much easier and enjoyble experience in the hospital or doctors office. Thanks, Allison
