When a child gets hurt, it can feel scary and confusing-but it doesn't have to be.

From the moment he falls to visiting the doctor, getting an X-ray, wearing a cast, and finally healing, Nate learns what it means to be brave, patient, and strong.
This reassuring and relatable story gently introduces children to the process of injury and recovery in a way that feels safe, calm, and encouraging.
