PEEPER HAS A FEVER
Charlotte Cowan, M.D., illustrated by Susan
Banta. (Concord, MA: The Hippocratic Press) $17.95
|
Dr. Cowan has written a clever story incorporating a parent's concern
and a child's frustration when a fever interrupts exciting plans. Dr.
Hippo tells Peeper's mom that the fever of 104 is just the beginning of
an infection and that a rash or runny nose may follow. Peeper falls
asleep and wakes to hear that he can't go on the picnic. Hearing that
Peeper misses out by being sick but takes his medicine reminds young
readers that everyone gets sick from time to time, but by taking care
of themselves, they soon will be back having fun.
