Get Well Donnell

About the Book

The book is about a child who had not felt well for few weeks. There were no visible symptoms indicating a problem. Despite having sharp abdominal pains, the child did not notify his parents or anyone else. An “A” student, the child is first to complete a spelling test, goes to the restroom and collapses. The book underscores the importance of communicating health concerns in a timely manner.
