This
just released picture book, dedicated to school nurses everywhere, offers both
information and assurance about an all too common pest:
Nurse Penny is a fun and funky school nurse who wears honeybee earrings
and a butterfly smock and carries a ladybug purse. But there's one kind of bug
she'd rather not have around. . .head lice! So she calls a special school
assembly to talk about those pesky critters--what they look like, how to avoid
them, and how to get rid of them. After all, lice can happen to anyone--even
the school nurse!
An information note outlines facts about lice.
Kirkus calls this colorful picture book “entertaining” with “good
instruction for prevention" and notes the "expressive and bright" illustrations by talented illustrator Suzanne Beaky.
