Abstract
It's another busy day at the hospital! Meet doctors and nurses, ride in an ambulance, and discover the magic of medicine in this nonfiction story for kids.
This book is perfect for any child who is nervous about a trip to the hospital. Dr. Christle Nwora takes readers behind the scenes to meet the incredible people who keep you healthy, from surgeons to mental health therapists. Dr. Nwora also explains the science behind how things work, from X-rays to operating theaters.
Set over the course of one day, you?ll follow different patients through their trip to the hospital, including:
- A couple having a new baby
- A boy getting a cast for his broken arm
- A woman on her way to have an operation
As you turn the pages of this book, illustrated by Ginnie Hsu, marvel at the way hospital staff work together―see who prepares the food in the cafeteria, what goes on in the laundry room, and what doctors chat about during their coffee break.
Once you've read this book you'll realize hospitals are full of heroes!

Accepting no for an answer is a key foundation of consent. We Accept No builds children?s social and emotional skills and helps teach them how to ask for permission, how to respect no, and how to handle rejection.
The fourth book in the We Say What?s Okay series, We Accept No follows Jamin, who is upset when his friend Zakiya doesn?t want to share a great big extra-squeezy hug at the end of the day. With the help of his teacher, Ms. H, Jamin learns why accepting no for an answer is important, what to do with his sad and angry feelings, and what else he can do when someone doesn?t want a hug. Using the book as a read-aloud, educators and families can model the language Jamin?s teacher uses to support him as he learns how to respect personal boundaries. The author, who hosts workshops and trainings on teaching boundaries and consent for families and early childhood educators around the country, offers additional activities in the back of the book.

Abstract
It?s hard for teens to be happy when they?ve created a very narrow window of what defines success. The goal of this helpful book is to encourage teens to maintain their desire to achieve without striving to always be perfect and to appreciate and love who they are just as they are, not for what they do or accomplish. Finding a balance between work and play is key. Challenging perfectionism is about the pursuit of happiness.
When teens can recognize that perfectionism is a disadvantage, they can become motivated to do something about it. For many, it may just be shifting the perfectionism a bit to land in a more positive place. It might be about deciding when and where to be slightly perfectionistic, when and where they can let go of high standards and all-or-nothing thinking, and when it?s okay to simply do a ?good enough? job on something.

Children's Hospitalization
Abstract
Sophie is a strong and brave little girl who talks about how she had cancer at a very young age. Sophie takes you on a journey of her time at the hospital, her battle with cancer and a brief period of her life after, in remission. She is excited to share her story with other children to help them be strong and brave as well.
Safia (Sophie) was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia at the age of 4 and has been in remission since August 1994. Safia always says, "It's because of BC Children's Hospital that I am alive." Safia wrote this book to help other children who are fighting the same battle she was at a young age. Proceeds from this book will be donated to the Michael Cuccione Childhood Cancer Research Program at BC Children's Hospital.
