It's a fun little rhyming book that conveys both humor and how miserable chicken pox is.

Others have only heard about it from their parents. I took a few days off work, partly for the fatigue, partly to give my face a rest from the coverings.Ī few of my students have had chicken pox and could still relate to the book. Absolutely miserable in 2021, as we're all still wearing masks. My shingles are on my face, on my left cheek. Then it erupts in an itchy, burning rash of welts and even blisters along a nerve.

This book has been designed for parents to read to children, for children to read to parents, and for children to read to themselves.

In the end, his chicken pox go away and he can go back to school again. The story continues as he looks all over his body and sees these red spots. This story is about a boy that sees red spots on his face, which makes him realize he has the chicken pox. This contemporary realistic fiction book will surely have children laughing and relating along with the main character.
