Summary
Every morning, my mom puts on her scrubs and her big, bright smile. She says, “Time to help people feel better!” That’s what she does every day. Page 3-4: (An illustration of the mom at the medical office, greeting patients.) Text: At work, Mom sees lots of people. “Good morning!” she says. “How can I help you today?” She checks them in, takes their temperatures, and even asks how they’re feeling. Page 5-6: (Mom taking someone’s blood pressure with the child peeking in from the side of the page.) Text: Sometimes, she wraps a cuff around their arm and listens closely. “Your blood pressure looks great!” she says with a nod. She’s like a detective, solving little health puzzles. Page 7-8: (Mom helping the doctor in the exam room, holding tools or updating charts.) Text: Mom works with the doctor, too. She gets things ready, takes notes, and makes sure everything runs smoothly. “She’s my right-hand helper,” the doctor always says. Page 9-10: (An illustration of Mom holding a little girl’s hand and calming her down before a shot.) Text: Some patients feel nervous, like Sarah, who’s scared of getting a shot. “Don’t worry,” Mom says softly, “I’ll be right here with you.” And just like that, Sarah is brave enough to try. Page 11-12: (Mom cleaning up, answering phones, or scheduling appointments at the desk.) Text: Mom does so much! She answers phones, cleans tools, and even schedules appointments. “It’s like keeping the whole office healthy,” she tells me. Page 13-14: (The child waiting for their mom at home, hugging her as she walks in the door.) Text: When Mom comes home, I run to hug her. “Did you help lots of people today?” I ask. She smiles. “I sure did!” Page 15-16: (A heartwarming illustration of Mom and the child reading a bedtime story together.) Text: Even after a long day, Mom always has time for me. She reads my favorite story, and I feel so lucky. Because my mom isn’t just any helper—she’s my hero.
