Perfectly Patti

By Patsy Gorveatte

Perfectly Patti is an uplifting children's book for ages 5-10 that shows kids living with an ileostomy that life can still be full of fun, adventure, and confidence. Through Patti's everyday experiences-playing with her dog, going to the beach, camping, swinging high, snowboarding, and even reading on her belly-children learn that having an ileostomy doesn't limit who they are or what they can do. This empowering story celebrates resilience, self-acceptance, and the message that being different doesn't mean missing out-it means living life perfectly your own way.

For parents and caregivers: This story offers a gentle, age-appropriate way to start meaningful conversations about medical differences, confidence, and embracing life after surgery, helping children feel seen, capable, and understood.
