Winter Tales by Lucía mi Pediatra

From her professional experience and the sensitivity of her motherhood, Lucía Galán has created a collection of stories to accompany the little ones in their development.

Hi! I'm Lola and here I am again with my brother Toni and our favorite pediatrician, Lucía, to welcome winter.

I'm having trouble breathing and I can't stop coughing. Lucía, my pediatrician, tells me that I have bronchitis, but that with the magic trumpet and coughing very hard, I will manage to expel the bugs and snot from my lungs. Since I'm sick, my grandparents come to take care of me. Lucía and I explain to Minina that I won't catch a cold from walking barefoot at home, because... viruses don't enter through your feet! When I recover, Mom takes me and my best friend Alba, who has Down syndrome, to painting class, where we will learn about diversity and tolerance. Then, when we deliver our letters to the Three Wise Men, we do it along with three bags full of toys we no longer use, clothes that are too small for us, and non-perishable food to help those in need. Our generosity pleased the Three Wise Men so much that they reward us with a snowfall! In addition, I will have a dream in which I will meet the penguin Filipino, who will teach me the importance of boundaries.

Lucía, my pediatrician, brings us five stories to share with the little ones and help them understand how their body and mind work during winter... and all year round!

In this book you will find…

A section in each story titled And now? Shall we talk?, where the little ones can reinforce what they have learned. It includes questions to generate conversations about the topics covered. In addition, there are Messages to take home, aimed at families, with a brief explanation of each ailment or topic covered.

Helping children understand their bodies and emotions can help them lose their fear of going to the doctor.
