Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This picture book about a child with a broken leg explores the role of courage and patience in the healing process-both inside and out
Lulu's leg is broken, but she's OK. Bonnie Bear has a matching yellow cast. Her sympathy trove has new books, sweet cards, and pretty daisies. She finds new ways to do ordinary things-like taking a bath or wearing her favorite pants.
As time wears on, the newness of the cast wears off and the weariness sets in. Lulu grows bored and grumpy by day. Her cast becomes itchy and twitchy at night. Eventually, it's time to get the cast off, but Lulu's not ready. What if her leg can't do all of the things it used to do? What if it breaks again? A visit from Grandpa, a well-timed letter, and the power of healing help get Lulu back on her feet.
Ages 4 to 8 Abrams Books for Young Readers.
Lulu does not mind having a broken leg while she is the center of attention, but after the newness wears off, it takes a visit from Grandpa and a well-timed letter to set things right.
