As preschool and junior children read these illustrated stories, or have them read to them, they will be encouraged to explore their own feelings about problems that might be bothering them. Each title focuses on a worry or anxiety that kids often face as part of the growing-up process. The books have appealing colour illustrations on every page, and each title features a short section of advice to parents. The child in this story suffers from asthma, a chronic condition that sometimes produces frightening attacks. But kids learn that with proper medical supervision and treatment, asthma can be kept under control, and kids who are affected by it can live happy, active, and normal lives.
