WHAT IF YOU COULD BE A DOCTOR AT FOURTEEN YEARS OLD?

Connor Hansen officially became a doctor two days ago--along with all of his friends. They are child prodigies who were selected at just three years old to undergo intensive medical training as part of a groundbreaking new experiment called Kid Docs.

While navigating his first days as an emergency room doctor, fourteen-year-old Connor will experience his first pangs of love (toward a fifteen-year-old obstetrician, Cassie), deal with his explosive older brother (a sixteen-year-old heart surgeon), and try to figure out why his friendship with fourteen-year-old fellow ER doctor Hannah has suddenly changed. At the same time, he will learn if he really has what it takes to save lives ... and if he can find the strength to accept that some lives cannot be saved.

**CYBILS AWARD NOMINEE!**

*KID DOCS has been picked by teachers as highly recommended reading for middle school students.*

This medically accurate (yet surprisingly easy to understand) book was written by a physician who is also an author of novels for young adults and adults.

Don't miss your chance to experience a fun behind-the-scenes look at the exciting and rewarding life of a physician!

What people are saying about KID DOCS:


"Soooo good! My daughter could NOT put this down! She wants to be surgeon and said this was the best book ever." - AC, Amazon

"This was one of the only books I found that was age appropriate for my middle school children to cultivate their interests in the field of medicine. A great starting point for conversations about the work of a doctor and to engage children in discussions about the medical profession." - Nick, Amazon

"The hospital setting was rich and accurate, with enough medical details to pique the curiosity of kids who might be so inclined, or to feed the fascination of adults who like to watch medical shows. I always appreciate dramatic suspense in a novel, and this one had it. Plenty of plot points kept me reading: finding out how the kid docs will react to the pressure, the fate of the patients who come into the hospital, and even the fate of one of their own." - Jennifer Donovan, 5 Minutes for Books

KID DOCS is perfect for teen boys and girls (including tweens ages 12 and up) who have ever said “I want to be a doctor,” are curious about what it's like to have a career in the medical field, or are interested in fun educational fiction or nonfiction stories about the adventure of being a doctor.

This author never disappoints! I absolutely love that she continuously makes me think outside the box with every book she writes.

This is the story of child doctors. Children whom were chosen at the age of three to undergo medical training as part of a controversial experiment with an incredibly high success rate. This concept was intriguing to me and incredibly informative. It follows the lives of these amazing child doctors and what they endure on a daily basis. It’s incredibly engaging and heartbreakingly beautiful.

I highly recommend this book. It’s definitely a read you won’t forget.
