A spoonful of imagination helps the medicine go down!
One Wednesday morning, Dani at Emergency Services takes a call: there’s been a car crash. Daisy’s arm is broken, Lisa’s got a head injury, and poor Mr. Von Thunderhoof has chest pains. They’re rushed by ambulance to the Hospital for Mythological Creatures, where a team of nurses, doctors, radiographers, and even porters spring into action.
As the patients are cared for, children discover how a real hospital works, from radiology to pediatrics, neonatal to ICU, through a playful, imaginative lens.
Packed with warmth, humour and fantastical characters, this book is the spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine go down, conveying factual content with reassuring warmth and sparkle. Cathy Evans’s clear, engaging storytelling combines with Ed J Brown’s lively illustrations to bring medical adventures to life.
