Eventually, it’s time to get the cast off, but Lulu’s not ready. What if her leg can’t do all of the things it used to do? What if it breaks again?

FROM THE AUTHOR: "Breaking a bone is not fun, but April now knew that broken bones heal." A few years ago, my granddaughter broke her arm and the experience of the break itself, an x-ray and cast was scary for her. I looked for a book to help explain what was going on and when I was unable to find any book that covered the topic, I decided to write my own. This book is written to help young children understand what a broken bone is and how it gets fixed. It's my hope that this book will reassure other young children that broken bones heal.
