Серія "Діти генетики" - про тваринок з різними генетичними захворюваннями і їхні родини, що була створена аби допомогти діткам з інвалідністю або рідкісними хворобами краще розуміти те, що з ними відбувається.
Перша книжка серії - про левеня, яке не було схоже на жодне інше, і його сміливу маму, яка не втрачала надії зрозуміти більше про здоров'я її сина.
Цю книжку можна прочитати безкоштовно на сайті Фонду Іпсена.

Sinceramente me alegro de haberme cruzado con este libro, ya que es lo más bonito que leí.

Es un libro que hablar sobre un tema médico tanto para los más pequeños de la casa como para todas las edades, es informativo y te hace ver cosas que ni sabíamos en este caso la errancia diagnóstica y la aceptación de uno cuando es diferente (no voy a negar que la parte del sabio me recordó al Rey León).

Este tipo de libros deberían estar en las bibliotecas y que lo lean en las escuelas (sin importar las edades).

"Errancía diagnostica". Nunca había escuchado de esto.
En mi caso, yo creía tener autismo, quería tener autismo, al final recibí más o menos un diagnostico
Pero toda mi familia y en especial yo era de "¿en dónde cabe quién soy yo?"🥹
