Peter, the Knight with Asthma

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anthony Lewis. Peter, pretending to fight a dragon, is slowed by fits of coughing and wheezing. After the doctor diagnoses asthma, Peter resumes play, now as the "Noble Knight of the Nebulizer." Approachable illustrations complement this simple introduction to a common disease. An appended note to parents accompanies the purpose-driven text.
