Hi @Ngozi Onyibor, I just read your comments on the official review of “Alfie’s Attack” by David Bohline. This is a story about a brave fish that has asthma. While this breathing disease has caused issues for Alfie, he learns about big world problems when he swims away from his home area and encounters a shark that sees him as dinner. There is a surprise for both of them. This is a book for children and asthma is one of the common health issues faced by children. Bohline used this story to create awareness of this issue and shows ways to manage it. This should be an eye-opener for many readers that do not know what causes asthma and how it can be managed. The last chapter of the book has a What to Do section of the Notes to Parents, that should be educational for all readers, especially parents. I highly recommend this book. @Mrlefty0706
