Tis the season to get sick! Of course, we are all trying to stay well and to educate our children about how to avoid getting sick by washing their hands, coughing into their sleeve, etc. Perhaps you are looking for a book to read with your child that would reinforce this or would comfort them when they do get sick. We have books on when your child is sick, when mommy is sick, going to the doctor, getting better, germs, and more. Here is a short list of books with their call numbers listed beneath them.
