Written by the child life specialist, this book explains many aspects of NICU care in child-appropriate language. The book described a large variety of reasons for being in the NICU and a variety of medical equipment. Parents can use this book to answer their kids’ questions about the NICU and to start important family conversations. Unlike Laura’s other sibling book, this one is appropriate for older children with longer attention spans. This book was designed for big brothers and sisters but could be used for other kids who know a baby that is in the NICU.
The book is filled with colorful watercolor illustrations that engage children and are appropriate for a variety of cultures, races, and family dynamics.
