Henry's Zipper - Paperback

by Maureen Horvath (Author), Maureen Horvath (Illustrator)

When Evelyn's baby brother Henry has to go to the hospital, she is scared. Henry can't grow very well with a hole in his heart and doctors need to fix it. Evelyn's happy family now seems sad because they are so worried about Henry.

Babies don't know about hospitals so Henry is not scared or worried. He still smiles at his mommy, daddy and Evelyn. When Henry goes to the hospital, lots of people send prayers and good thoughts to him. Will Henry be okay? Will he look different with a zipper scar? How will Evelyn's brother change?

This is a true story of a baby who has open heart surgery at two months old and the family who loves him.
