This lighthearted look at common children's illnesses examines colds, flu, headaches, allergies, and other assorted health problems with humor and full-color cartoon illustrations, mixing scientific information (like the difference between viruses and bacteria) with funny verses or observations (carsickness exists to make parents will think twice about long, boring car rides). Ehrlich steadfastly avoids scaring the young readers with horror stories, explaining that our bodies generally cure most illnesses on their own. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
