Description

It's Dash's first day at the hospital, and her confidence is wavering. She wonders whether she has what it takes to be a good facility dog. Then Dash meets Francisco, a ten-year-old diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, and her training kicks in. Can Dash help Francisco cope with pokes, shots, and other parts of his diabetes treatment? Join Dash to find out more about Francisco as he takes on diabetes! Therapy dogs are specially trained to help kids through medical experiences--from lifting spirits, motivating movement, modeling the power of play, and more. Nonfiction back matter provides more information about medical topics introduced in the books, from acute to chronic issues, while also providing more information about therapy dog programs and the Mayo Clinic Children's Center.
