GoodBookStall Review:
Each story of the series is also available as a free online film with the story read by Bear Grylls and there are pages with help for parents at the back of the book. The price of book includes postage from publisher.
Children are not the only ones who can be frightened by the idea of going into hospital. Anything that can help them conquer this fear at an early age will help them for the rest of their lives.
Maya has to spend a short time in hospital, so listens to a story about Jesus who tells his friends that he will always be with them. She learns that this is true at home and at church and that it will still be true when she gets to the hospital. She had lots of questions but finds hospital is full of new friends and when she feels low, she remembers that Jesus has said he will be with her always, and she is comforted.
Simply but effectively illustrated to accompany the carefully chosen words.
