A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Inflammatory Bowel Disease affects 1 in 250 in the UK population, with a number of those being young people. What's Up with Adam? Medikidz Explain IBD is a resource designed to educate not only affected young patients, their peers and parents, but also to aid practitioners and educators in explaining health conditions as effectively as possible. The books follow a team of five larger than life superheroes from outer space, with each Medikidz specialising in explaining a different part of the body. What's Up with Adam is an engaging way to educate children about the medical facts behind Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Adam seems to be spend most of his day troubled with horrible stomach pains and numerous (and long!) trips to the toilet, causing him much discomfort. His friends don t also understand why he s always in the loo, leaving them to slowly get bored and give up on him. However, the Medikidz are on hand to inform Adam all about IBD from what exactly triggers the condition along the stomach walls to how diet and medication can make him feel better again. Join the Medikidz, and learn about the meanings of all things as strange as vili, colonoscopies, and RICE!
