Alphabet Puke - A Comical Children's Book That Deciphers Biology, Illness and the Medical Profession

March 4, 2013 - PRLog -- LITTLE ROCK, Ark. -- Blue Robot Books, an imprint of Wyatt-MacKenzie Publishing announces Alphabet Puke - Monsters’ Medicine A-Z, a picture book filled with monsters and their health misadventures. Children’s author, scientist and mother of four, Quinn Cole, offers parents a humorous way to decipher the body (e.g., T is for Tonsils), interpret symptoms (e.g., F is for Fever), and preview treatments (e.g., X is for X-ray). The impudent title, sure to snag a child’s interest, immediately sets a lighthearted tone. With a lilting text and humorous illustrations, parents are given a means to explain scary or misunderstood subjects while sharing in monster silliness.

According to the Centers for Disease Control 2011 National Health Interview Survey, 92.6% of children had contact with a health care professional in the past 12 months and nearly 75% of school-aged children (aged 5-17 years) in the United States missed school due to illness or injury.

Alphabet Puke is perfect for those days when a parent gets an unexpected call from a school or day care provider about a sudden fever, illness, or playground mishap. The vivid and whimsical illustrations depict young, active monsters tackling everything from allergies, hiccups and nose bleeds to broken bones, immunizations and diabetes. Coloring pages from the book are available on the author’s website (www.quinncole.com).

“I wanted to create a fun and informative medical book to distract children from unpleasant symptoms, illness, and unexpected trips to a doctor’s office or emergency room,” said Quinn Cole, author of Alphabet Puke. “This book helps to take “scary” out of sickness.”

Alphabet Puke - Monsters’ Medicine A-Z will be available at all major booksellers in print and ebook formats. Be sure to “like” Alphabet Puke on the Blue Robot Facebook fan page. Watch the Alphabet Puke book trailer on YouTube.
