Synopsis

From the author of the New York Times bestseller Raise Your Hand comes an important book about making your voice heard, especially when others refuse to listen.

After a harrowing experience at the hospital, Alice Paul Tapper—daughter of CNN's Jake Tapper—shares her story with the help of some imaginary friends.

When Alice wakes up with a terrible pain in her stomach, she's not sure what might be the cause. A doctor at the hospital asks her to pick which face on a numbered pain chart best shows the suffering that she's experiencing. The problem is, she's nervous and isn't sure. That's when the faces turn into imaginary friends who help her speak up about what she's feeling.

This fictionalized version of Alice's real experience chronicles her struggle to get the right diagnosis after suddenly being struck with appendicitis. Caregivers and kids alike will benefit from reading this meaningful book about advocating for yourself during a medical emergency. With whimsical and comforting illustrations by Fanny Liem, the gentle telling of this true story will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to be believed.
