Book Reviews of Jessica's X-Ray
Book Review: Good teaching tool
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a great way to introduce children to x-rays. The book comes with copies of real x-rays which help in explaining to children what will happen when getting an x-ray.Book Review: Great Little Book
Summary: 4 Stars
My 4 1/2 yr old daughter was due for an x-ray and ultrasound appointment at the hospital for a routine protocol procedure to rule out a pathology ... and as it was her first appointment for any kind of scan / x-ray, I wanted to explain the procedure, how it works, that she had to lie still and what it looked like afterwards. This book provides copies of real x-rays and has a simple story line which makes it easy to understand & reassuring to children ... and takes away the anxiety of "the unkown". I found it a very useful little book and she was amazed at the black & white x-rays depciting real life cases.Book Review: My 5 yr old niece LOVED this book when she broke her arm
Summary: 4 Stars
When my 5 yr old niece broke her arm, I bought her this book and she really liked it a lot. Made her feel "special" and thought all the xrays in the book were really neatBook Review: My daughter's favorite book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my 2-year-old daughter's favorite book. The book has helped her understand a little bit more about bones, and I think it also awakens curiosity about what other mysteries might be hidden inside the body. I agree with another reviewer who said that there may be too much info about CAT scans and MRI for a small toddler, so I just abridge those pages ("This is a machine for taking pictures of the inside of your head!" and "This is another way to take pictures of the inside of your body -- you slide into this big tube and they take pictures," etc.) Olivia especially likes the wrist x-rays, the ultrasound baby and the dentist's x-ray of the mouth.Book Review: X-Rays Up close!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great story for any child who has an interest in bones, doctors, hospitals, the human body etc. The illustrations are cute. The story is of a little girl, Jessica, who has broken her arm. As she is receiving care at the hospital, she sees all different types of x-rays and the different types of equipment that take them. The best part of all is that there are real X-rays on every other page for kids to study up close. My preschoolers really enjoyed spending some time looking over those pages. It's a very unique book. I would highly recommend it for the budding scientist or for any child who may have to have X-rays of their own taken.
