The Hospital for Mythological Creatures

A spoonful of imagination helps the medicine go down!

>
As the patients are cared for, children discover how a real hospital works, from radiology to pediatrics, neonatal to ICU, through a playful, imaginative lens.

Packed with warmth, humour and fantastical characters, this Richard Scarry-esque book is the spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine go down, conveying factual content with reassuring warmth and sparkle.

Cathy Evans' clear, engaging storytelling combines with Ed J Brown's lively illustrations to bring medical adventures to life.
