What a wonderful book to introduce to elementary aged school children. Asthma is a very common condition and children need to learn about what it is, how it can be prevented and about how people deal with it. This book does all of those! This book also teaches empathy, which is a key skill in the interpersonal development of a young a child. Piper Lee teaches kids in such a simple and direct way, any child will be able to relate. Great book!

We learned about "triggers." Triggers cause asthma attacks and there are ways to stay away from triggers. We also learned how to be more empathetic toward someone with asthma.
