Under the Bandage by Lois Wickstrom is a fun and imaginative kids’ book. The story is filled with colorful illustrations and lots of creativity.
This book was great for teaching kids about how their cuts heal and about bacteria and blood cells. My son, who has a bandage on his hand right now, really enjoyed learning about how cuts heal.

This is a cute little story about a little boy and how he recovers from a scraped knee. I really liked how the book interjected facts about the body and how healing occurs. I think many children would enjoy reading the cute story and finding out about how their bodies work. I recommend this book to anyone with children who have inquiring minds and love to learn more about their body and how it heals.

What happens when you scrape your knee? Find out in this story! I read this with my 7 year old son. I love how things are explained in a way that makes sense to kids. My son is homeschooled and this year for science we were working on the human body. This was a great addition to what we have been learning. It’s not only a fun story, but very informative. That is usually how Lois Wickstrom’s books go. You have fun, but you also learn. (And it’s not boring!)

Okay first off I love the facts and tidbits the author puts on the pages. Most of them I never knew but now I do lmao so I’d say this book is good for all ages. I read this with my little one tonight, so hopefully after seeing this he’ll leave his bandages alone after a boo boo. This book was a great read, super fun and informative (which is awesome) about the bodies healing process after an accident, in a cool graphic way but I wouldn’t expect anything less from the talented author Lois Wickstrom. I look forward to seeing more work from this author 🥰🥰

I have read a few of these authors’ books to my niece and she loves them. This book teaches you what happens when you get a boo boo. . My niece loves that the pictures for the story go so well with each other. She also loves that it makes learning fun.

A little boy loves to play with his toy soldiers. He trips on one of his pieces and he skins his knee. He goes to mom and she puts a bandage on his knee and tells him not to touch it. Then the story goes into how your body is healing his knee. Will he leave his bandage alone or will he not listen to his mom?

What a great informative book. I feel like I just had a science lesson! I loved the rhyming of the story and the little facts also on the page. My 4 year old granddaughter loved me reading her this book. She was more interested in the story and not so much in the facts. The facts will be used and read better by the older children. The illustrations are fabulous and depict the story great.

Information on the science of the human body is told in a way to help younger minds understand. Lois Wickstrom astonishes me once again in the way she gives information to young minds. Her creative easy to understand comparisons of how a wound is healed related to war and rebuilding is wonderful. With the extra big words in boxes along the way this book helps have informative moments with your little one in a fun educational way.

Under the Bandage by Lois Wickstrom. This is my favorite children’s author and my 6 year old nephew loves when I buy these books and read them to him. This one is all about boo boos and when you have a son, grandson, nephew or brother we all know how boys always have boo boos. This book is about a young boy who scrapes his knee so he needs a bandage. The bandage has to stay on to keep all the bad bacteria out. This author has the magical ability to teach a science lesson in her stories without you even realizing it. They are magical. Teaching us each phase our body goes thru in healing is just wonderful for little minds. Do yourself a favor and pick up this great story for young kids today!

I always love getting to read books by this author, she always does such a great job writing stories that children will enjoy. She always writes her stories in a way that kids learn new and fun facts, but in a way that is fun and engaging. We have a kiddo who gets a scrap on his knee and he loves playing with his toy soldiers, so soldiers become the metaphor for his injury healing. Kids will enjoy the writing style and the illustrations are definite going to be a great way to keep kiddos focused and excited to learn and see how things turn. As always from this author, another fan favorite story.

Under the Bandage by Lois Wickstrom is a wonderful book. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is great for kids. It helps teach kids to keep calm, clean the cut, and let a parent put a bandage on it when you get hurt. As a mom of 2 kiddos who love being rough and always getting hurt, this book helped show my kids that it is not only ok when they get hurt, but also the importance of keeping it clean and covered, in a fun creative way.

As usual, this book was an entertaining and fun story that kids can relate to so easily. This book felt much more topical that the others thanks to my son’s recent discovery of climbing (and falling). Bandages have become a regular staple in our household and this book made it all seem so much more exciting than it otherwise would have been.
The illustrations in the book were incredible and we all loved looking at each and every one of them. They really brought the story to life and had is returning to it time and again. This book, and this author, is fantastic and a book that is definitely worth reading.

This was a great read for any child, the main storyline was catchy and short for the younger readers to keep interested, and then there’s science facts throughout it explaining what’s happening under a bandage when you get hurt. These were great for a kid like mine (7) who’s really into science stuff right now. Would definitely recommend this book. Great for homeschooling as well.

My band- aid obsessed neice couldn’t wait for us to read this book. While there might not be something going on under each of her many band-aids, she was excited to learn what happened when there was really a real boo boo as she put it. Wickstrom did an amazing job of balancing the information in a way that could engage with both the older kids and the younger teaching them the healing process in a way that would relate to their understanding. Between the writing and the illustrations, I would absolutely recommend this book.

Break out the first aid kits for this one. Every child should know how our body works. They also need to know how to take care of their boo-boos. As well as why we must keep them clean and protected. I love the science behind the story. The author has once again written a book with children in mind. The story is easy to read and understand. The history behind the games and toys we played with was also interesting. Another great book and must have for every child’s library.

I really enjoyed the lessons this book taught. I love the fact that when he gets hurt, he counts to three to calm down and then goes immediately to wash the dirt off. I really enjoyed this little book and I think any children will enjoy it too!

I thought this was a good book for the kiddos. It explains what happens when you get hurt and need a bandaid to keep it covered. The kids didn’t enjoy this one as much as others but the older one sat and listened while I read the whole book. Short and great colorful photos

Just like the rest of the books that I have read by Lois Wickstrom, this one as well does not disappoint. Always a fun story with wonderful illustrations. This one about the healing of a scraped knee. The fun jingle-ish type rhythm and the more technical explanations on the same page help kids of all ages learn about how wounds heal. Great story !

Under the Bandage is a fun kid book that teaches them about germs and the healing process when they get a cut. We are big fans of this author and enjoy the rhyming stories and colorful illustrations. I like that it had little fun facts added to each page to explain the story and it’s accurate terms of what is happening. My son liked the book because he just learned about cells and antibodies at school recently. I think this book would be enjoyable to younger elementary school kiddos and would be good to add to a lesson plan about first aid and keeping cuts clean.

Under the Bandage By Lois Wickstrom is children’s book that children ages 5-8 can enjoy. We loved reading this book and learning about how our bodies fight off bacteria/infection. We learned about different kinds of bacteria and infections how to treat them. We’ve read several books by this author and we love her colorful illustrations that help bring the story to life. I love that my son actually learns something useful from reading this authors books. We highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. We look forward to reading more from this Author.

My entire household always loves it when I bring home a book by this author! This one had little bits of educational information on most pages but still short enough to keep my youngest’s attention. I struggle with getting him to keep his bandaids on, so this was perfectly timed and right up his alley. The story has rhyming throughout which had us bopping along with the rhythm. I think it was really cool for both of my kiddos to see illustrations explaining how our bodies heal the bumps and scrapes that we get. This is definitely one of our top favorite books by Lois Wickstrom and hope we get to see more like this in the future! I highly recommend picking this up and sharing with the young ones in your life whether that’s at school, at a doctor’s office, or at home.

My 7 year old daughter has been learning about the human body at school and just yesterday was telling me about the body’s blood cells. I felt that Under the Bandage by Lois Wickstrom would be a great addition to her library. It was cute to see her brain connect things she’s learning while reading a children’s story and it welcomed a conversation about what she’s learned which is always cool. As a pediatric nurse and a mother, I really enjoyed this book.

Under the Bandage is a fun, engaging and imaginative story. With some of the pages have very interesting facts to learn….the story is told in a rhyme….what can happen after you skin your knee!!
We learn as we follow each page to clean and cover the hurt so it feels better…..but how our body helps the healing.

This was a fun story. The illustrations were very colorful and really brought the story to life. While this book is more for ages 5- 8 years of age even the young at heart while you read to the littles can learn some new things as well and I loved that about this story.

Under the Bandage is a fun children’s story by Lois Wickstrom. The story has an educational component, as it helps to explain our bodies immune response/immune system, how it deals with bacteria/infection (liking it to a battle with soldiers), and the healing process- as well as other interesting facts found on nearly every page…with a list of our body’s main defenses found at the end of the story.
Our little MC skins his knee while playing, so after washing it clean, his mother puts a bandage on it and tells him that it will heal faster if he doesn’t peek- and also tells him that he will need a new bandage put on it every day, for a week. He is very curious about what is happening ‘Under the Bandage’….
The illustrations are really cute- big, bright, bold, and colourful – bringing the story to life and really grabbed my grandchildren’s attention.
The story is told in a rhyming verse, which added an extra element of interest to the overall story.
While the ‘story’ itself is written in a way that is easy to read and understand, the ‘interesting facts’ portion of the story has some ‘bigger’, more complicated words which children may have trouble reading and understanding (but those parts could be skipped over if you wanted, without affecting the ‘actual’ story).
Happy reading…
