Duke à l’hôpital – Reader by unit

Faced with an ear infection and then the accidental ingestion of a razor blade, Duke has to get through some difficult times, face his fears, and undergo emergency surgery at the veterinary hospital. The story teaches that confronting one’s apprehensions, accepting help from professionals, and appreciating the unconditional support of loved ones allows us to come out stronger. Exploring Duke’s reactions draws upon inhibitory control (managing panic and pain), emotional regulation, and problem-solving in a crisis.
