N2  - Describes how thinking of pleasant images and favorite things can help children deal with pain. Includes a section that advises parents how they can help their child manage their pain. This book is beautifully illustrated, amplifying the very simple text with lots of imaginative possibilities. The Notes for Parents guide caregivers on how to use imagery and deep breathing as tools to help alleviate the experience of pain, and encourages children to imagine the sensory experiences of, for example, warm sand and a comforting breeze at a beach, when having a headache. The notes include advice on chronic or recurrent pain, and coping with medical procedures. Colour picturebook with short text.
