Many children have been to the hospital at least once: they visit sick friends and relatives or their mom and newborn sibling. Others have been patients themselves. But even children who have never been to a hospital are curious about this fascinating place. The book offers all of them a sensitive insight behind the scenes. Readers will learn all sorts of interesting facts about the people, departments, and equipment in a clinic, and they can even take a look into an operating room. A large fold-out page shows a detailed cross-section of the entire hospital.
