Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
New from Mayo Clinic Press Kids' Helping Paws Academy series, Lumos Helps with Healing follows a facility dog who helps a child with a broken arm.
Lumos, an adorable facility dog, brings comfort to a child who broke her arm, with strong messages of empathy, kindness, and courage. Facility dogs are specially trained to help kids through medical experiences--from lifting spirits, motivating movement, modeling the power of play, and more. Nonfiction back matter provides more information about medical topics introduced in the books, from acute to chronic issues, while also proving more information about facility dog programs and the Mayo Clinic Children's Center.
Mayo Clinic Press Kids creates empowering health and wellness content in partnership with pediatric experts. Proceeds from the sale of every book go to benefit important medical research and education at Mayo Clinic.
The air is crisp, and the autumn leaves are falling: Lumos can tell it's going to be a good day. When he and handler Eun Ji arrive at the emergency room, Nurse Adam presents them with an important task. Nine-year-old Izzy had a bad fall, and her broken arm is hurting. Will Lumos manage to help Izzy cope with the pain, X-rays, and getting a case? Join Lumos and Child Life Specialist Eun Ji to find out more about Izzy and her battle with broken bones!
