What is Ness the nurse about?
Ness the Nurse is ready to help when children have bumps, scrapes and sore toes. With her kind smile and a case full of plasters, she visits children who need a little care. As each plaster is used, young readers can count down from ten and join in with the gentle rhyming text. Bright, simple illustrations show familiar accidents and reassure children that small injuries can be treated with patience, kindness and a plaster.
