5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for kids dealing with seizures.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Lee: The Rabbit with Epilepsy (Special Needs Collection) (Hardcover)
This book is very good to read to young children to explain epilepsy. It is put into simple terms and gives a good general explaination. The pictures are detailed, fun and colorful which will help engage the child's interest. This book is good for anyone who wants their child to learn that there should be no 'stigma' attatched to epilespy- it is a disease that can (in most cases) be helped with medicine. It would be excellent for a child recently diagnosed with seizues. It is good for a family which may have a child with epilepsy to help siblings understand what is happening. It is also a book which can be used in the classroom. It is brief yet it gets the message across. This book is part of a series of books about Special Needs and Deborah Moss (author)takes a very careful look at how a child might feel if he or she experienced seizures and that life continues and will be normal. It helps alleviate fears. It also works well because it portrays a rabbit instead of a child with seizures. I highly recommend it to everyone. I have not read the other books in the collection but I imagine they are just as good.

This review is from: Lee: The Rabbit with Epilepsy (Special Needs Collection) (Hardcover)
My 4 year old daughter recently had been diagnosed with Absence Seizures. This book was just what we needed. It gives her something to identify with. Lee also has Absence Seizures. Most of the other books I have looked at covered the Grand-mal Seizures. GREAT BOOK to help a young child understand in a simple way of what is happening to them.

Good book for absence seizures,

This review is from: Lee: The Rabbit with Epilepsy (Special Needs Collection) (Hardcover)
When my son was diagnosed with epilepsy, I was very surprised that this was the only children's book I could find on the subject. This is a good book, but my son suffered from grand mal seizures. This book is about absence seizures, in which you stare. It covered everything quite well and even mentioned other types of seizures. I would recommend, especially if your child suffers from absence seizures.
