Gerry the Giraffe and his Super Awesome but sometimes icky Tracheostomy

I was excited to find this book. I am an elementary school teacher and will be going back to work with a trach, and I wanted something to help make my students feel a bit more comfortable and open up a dialogue so they could ask questions. I just wish it would have had a little more detail.

A really cute book that shows how how a tracheostomy doesn't mean you can't live a normal life. I highly recommend this book for any child or parent of a child with a tracheostomy or for anyone who knows someone who has one. The author is a nurse that deals with this type of thing for kids all the time so she should know what it is like for them.

Perfect for hospital childlife personal, pediatric respiratory therapists and nurses, and family and friends of those with a tracheotomy.

This book is ok but doesn’t make sense and a bit awkward to read, it’s like it’s trying to rhyme but doesn’t. Not a very good book to explain about kids haveing trachys

Great book,

It story was not great and didn’t seem child friendly
