Hoyt, MD, FACS Executive Director, American College of Surgeons “ What a great idea. This book is a wonderful way to connect the surgical experience with young children and ease their fears. I highly endorse this book.” Dr. Daniel Cole, MD.Past President, American Society of Anesthesiologists “ The Tell Me Town Book, using Pounce and Beamer to tell the story of Dr. Dreamtime anesthetizing Pounce, is a wonderful story for children and parents about the technical details of an anesthetic, told in an enjoyable manner. As an anesthesiologist, parent and grandparent, I wish it was around when I was sending my children and grandchildren to the operating room.” David L. Brown, MD, FACHE(R) Founder and CEO, Curadux, Former Chair, Anesthesiology Institute, Cleveland Clinic “Pounce helps anxious children prepare for surgery with colorful illustrations and an engaging text.” Brian K.

It also reveals every child's desire to be accepted by their peers, particularly when something beyond their control, like scoliosis, makes them different. Patients who have the support of their family, friends and medical professionals that "have your back" make all the difference, just like in Adie's experience. We are very grateful for Cindy Chambers, Dr. Moshirfar, and Mrs. Allan's 8th grade class at J.
