This picture book tells the story of one day in the life of a little girl fighting Cystic Fibrosis. It was written in order to help these small but mighty few find a sense of commonality and see fun photos of other kids who are just like themselves. Kids will enjoy learning about others their age who do daily treatments, take many medicines, and have hospital stays, and hopefully feel not so alone in their battle.

I have a 5 year old with cystic fibrosis and he was so excited to see pictures of other children having to do what he does every day - use a vest, nebulizer, take enzymes, etc. He just kept repeating "just like me". This has certainly helped him to not feel like he is the only one.

I think this book is great. The perspective that it is written from makes it easy for a child to identify with and having the pictures of the treatments and all the children is great. I loved this book becuase it gives people of all ages a a little insight on Cystic Fibrosis.

This book is a wonderful tool to show your children with Cystic Fibrosis that they aren't alone. They aren't the only one in the world who needs to do these treatments. To be able to see all these children smiling is so beautiful. My son loves looking at this book and has me read it to him over and over. --Charla (A parent of a child with CF)

My 2yr. old son has CF and absolutely loved looking at the pictures of the other children doing what he does daily. I enjoyed reading it to him. What a wonderful learning tool to have for children and adults! Thanks
