Review # 1 was written on 2013-11-23 00:00:00 Marvin Washington Children who suffer with chronic pain are encouraged to use their imaginations and deep breathing as tools for easing their pain. Written in soothing rhyme, the author uses the images of a warm rain, a wind blowing softly, cuddling with a puppy, a clouds in a sky, rainbows, and a field filled with daisies and grass. I am overjoyed to find a picture book written so simply for children who live with chronic pain, like sickle cell, arthritis, burns, cancer, and lupus. Brenda Miles' book empowers children by encouraging them to use imagery/visualization and deep breathing to help them when their bodies are hurting. This is a very encouraging book to share with kids who are learning to cope with chronic pain. Wong's illustrations are whimsical ink and watercolors that inspire, uplift, calm, warm and sooth the child. They are exquisite.
