Description

A spoonful of imagination helps the medicine go down!

One Wednesday morning, Dani at Emergency Services takes a call: there's been a car crash. Daisy's arm is broken, Lisa has a head injury, and poor Mr. Von Thunderhoof has chest pains. They're rushed by ambulance to the Hospital for Mythological Creatures, where a team of nurses, doctors, radiographers, and even orderlies spring into action.

As the patients are cared for, children discover how a real hospital works, from radiology to pediatrics and neonatal to the ICU, through a playful, imaginative lens. Packed with warmth, humor, and fantastical characters, this book conveys factual content with reassuring warmth and sparkle. Cathy Evans's clear, engaging storytelling combines with Ed J Brown's lively illustrations to bring medical adventures to life.
