About The Book

A sick little boy spreads his germs in this funny and witty board book about taking care of oneself and others when not feeling well.

Germs galore! Simon has a cold, but he’s determined to not let that stop him…even if it means he sneezes everywhere and coughs on everyone.

Previously published as a picture book, this clever story looks at how germs spread and what kids can do to protect themselves and each other from getting sick.
