A real face and experience of childhood asthma

This book has strong information about asthma as well as a real child's experience to relate it to. My son liked reading it and, as medical director of a pediatric asthma educational program, I am purchasing some for our grade school participants. I think it helps kids to understand they are not the only one with an illness and that an illness can be incorporated into everyday life, if you are a partner with your doctor in helping to control it.
