Everyday, millions of children around the world are diagnosed with medical conditions about which they have very little understanding.  It is often felt that children are too young to understand medical concepts, or worse, they are better off not knowing.  Medikidz wants to change that.
Medikidz' aim is to help kids learn about health and disease in an exciting, non-threatening way, blending fun with fact.  Medikidz explain medicine for kids!

The Medikidz are a group of larger-than-life, space dwelling characters who live on Mediland - a planet shaped just like the human body.  The Medikidz will take children on a journey through Mediland, explaining complex medical issues in a language and style they can understand.

Written by a team of doctors, the Medikidz series of books does not try to 'sugarcoat' serious problems.  Rather, the information provided will empower your child with the knowledge they need to take ownership of their disease, providing them with some skills for self-management.

What's up with Paulina?

It's Paulina's birthday and everyone is excited about the classroom party she is having - cupcakes galore! Paulina then suddenly feels ill. The whole classroom disrupts into chaos - poisoned cupcakes! But no, Paulina is allergic to peanuts and she's unfortunately eaten the wrong cake.

Luckily the Medikidz - a dedicated group of superheroes - jump into action and whisk Paulina and her friend away before her classmates can say "call poison control!" Pump, Skinderella, Chi, Gastro, Axon, and the trusty brain-on-legs, Abacus, are specialist tour guides of the human body and can tell Paulina all about her allergy. 

Join Paulina on her journey around Mediland (a planet shaped just like the human body) as she discovers the facts behind her food allergy. Along the way they will encounter the confused immune system army, gruesome infections and the Medikidz' arch nemesis, Anna Phylaxis. Will the Medikidz be able to avoid Anna's attacks and deliver Paulina back to earth in time to finish off her party?
