Designed to reduce medical anxiety in children, this reassuring picture book explains each step—from hospital check-in and meeting doctors and nurses to wearing a hospital gown and waking up after surgery—in clear, age-appropriate language.

Created to support emotional readiness, this hospital book for kids helps children feel informed, empowered, and supported during a medical experience. Inclusive illustrations and a warm, steady tone make this book especially helpful for children preparing for any type of surgery or medical procedure.

Written by Katherine Lockwood, a mental health therapist and school adjustment counselor, My Surgery Day! was inspired by her daughter’s experience with hip dysplasia surgery. Blending lived experience with professional insight, this book serves as both a therapeutic resource and a comforting story—helping children feel less afraid and more confident as they approach surgery day.
