One of my professors read this book to us in class and I fell in love with the book. It is by Jamie Lee Curtis. Honestly, I did not know that Jamie Lee Curtis was an author for children's books. I bought the book and read it again, and actually shared it with other child life major students. It is a great book to have as a resource to use when a child for example is hospitalized and is scared and don't know anyone. You can read this book to the child and let them know that it is okay to feel what you feel and make it like an ice breaker between you and the child.The illustrations are brillant and fun. The words are poetic and children will enjoy. I would love to find more books like this that I can use as resources to help children deal with trauma or just to make them smile.
