Zip-Line
Zip-line is a book for kids that have a scar on their chest from open heart surgery to repair a CHD. Used by families, schools and hospitals, Zip-line whimsically explains the answer to the question "How did that line get there?". The story centers around a little girl and her bunny rabbit explaining to the reader how she got the scar on her chest and how she isn't any different than anyone else. It shows her unrestricted in activities and features age appropriate illustrations - no blood, or anything remotely graphic. It aims to set a model for kids with a CHD to be comfortable with themselves, their heart scar, and the surgery that they were too young to remember. www.ziplinebook.com

It's a lovely, child-friendly explanation of an open heart surgery scar. My daughter loves that the girl in the book has a zipper just like she does and her older brother (5) likes the pictures that show what the hospital is like since he didnt get to visit her when she had her surgery two years ago.

Just got this book for my little TGA babe! I hope someday it helps him understand his "piece of art"
