A children's book about asthma was chosen as the starting point for Vitality Books for several reasons, foremost among these being need.

In America alone, the number of asthmatic children is at six million and climbing.  Fortunately, this serious and most common of childhood maladies has some very effective treatments. 

The goals of Vitality Books are twofold:

1) Provide children and their parents with a working knowledge of specific medical conditions, and

2) Instill a positive mind-set to alleviate fear and manage those condition(s) more successfully.
If medical interventions become necessary, they will be more effective with that basic knowledge and the empowering, positive belief system.
