About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing an upcoming medical procedure, an unexpected trip to the hospital, or is simply expressing fear about doctors and white coats. Gabe's Adventure in the ER transforms a potentially scary and sterile environment into a place of discovery by following Gabe through a surprise visit to the emergency room. Rather than focusing on pain, the story highlights the fascinating tools, kind professionals, and high-tech machines that help people get better. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to validate their child's anxiety while providing a roadmap of what to expect. By emphasizing curiosity and bravery, it helps children ages 4 to 8 feel more in control of an unfamiliar situation. This book is particularly effective because it models how to ask questions and trust the helpers around you.
