Product Description

Childhood illnesses present themselves in many ways. This guide is meant to help recognize symptoms and signs of common childhood illnesses and take appropriate action to maintain healthy, safe, and nurturing environments for children. It is not a diagnostic tool.

A brief introductory chapter explains general information about germs. Next, chapters on individual syptoms, such as sore throat, inflamed eyes, and rashes, contained checklists of signs, boxes on recognizing an emergency, patterns of specific illnesses and complications, and simple explanations of the role of germs and/or viruses. Practical advice is given for disinfecting the environment, and how long the sick child should be kept away from other children. Softcover, 50 pages.

Organized for quick and easy reference, it provides the most accurate information on:

  • recognizing symptoms of more than forty illnesses
  • indications when immediate attention is needed
  • prevention methods, childhood vaccines and immunizations, and reducing the spread of germs
  • steps to care for an ill child
  • additional resources for further reading on health topics
