OUCH! My Tummy Hurts is intended to help inform children about the
medical world. It is the first book in the 'To the Doctors' series
that tells the tale of fictional characters going to the doctors to
get their aches, pains or their problem seen to by a doctor. In
this story, avid football player Oliver Price has a mysterious
tummy ache and loss of appetite. This book follows him 'to the
doctors' and throughout his medical journey towards making a full
recovery from his diagnosis... The aim of this series is to
dissolve children's fears and help educate them on medical problems
including, but not limited to, disabilities, injuries and
procedures. It aims to target curious kids, patients and perhaps
even aspiring doctors. Of course, this series is not a substitute
for medical advice and parents should always take medical concerns
to healthcare professionals. This series will simply outline the
process of dealing with medical issues in a child-friendly story
format to help 'establish the unestablished' for children who may
be fearful of the unknown and to even inspire children to go into a
medical profession. This book in particular focuses on Oliver, an
avid football player, and his mysterious tummy ache...
