From the moment Alfie discovers his new abilities, I was hooked! The story moves fast and keeps you guessing what will happen next.

This book does a remarkable job of blending a fun, engaging story with educational content on asthma management. Using Alfie's adventure to illustrate real-life challenges faced by asthmatic children, Bohline offers a compassionate and creative approach to raising awareness. Nice review.

I appreciate how this book mixes adventure with real-life information. Kids get entertained, but they also learn about asthma triggers and management in a way that's easy to understand.

It is quite unique that the author used marine creatures to teach children about tips associated with asthma and how to manage it. It will interest the kids the most because majority of kids are excited about pets in general. I will read the book to find out the surprise that both the shark and the fish encountered, and what happened next.

I find it peculiar and interesting to read a children's book where a fish is asthmatic. What happens when an asthmatic fish encounters a shark? Children will find this book interesting and also learn more about asthma.

First of all, I would have never imagined a fish having asthma. However, I like that the author used this book to teach readers things about asthma. I believe the book will be beneficial.

Great review! This review is well-written as it adeptly captures the plot. "Alfie's Attack" sounds like an excellent blend of adventure and education. I love how it uses Alfie’s story to teach kids about asthma in a fun way, and the “Notes to Parents” section seems super helpful. The encounter with the shark and the role of D'Octopus sound exciting too. Thanks for sharing such a thorough review!
