Author and illustrator Hey Gee brings to life an imaginative, adventurous story based on a real-life Mayo Clinic patient whose interests and activity aren't limited by asthma. This action-packed story shows how he manages his asthma symptoms in different climates and situations, with his cat sidekick, Alfredo, by his side and his inhaler always at the ready. A beautifully illustrated graphic approach provides a kid's-eye view of living with, and beyond, this common childhood disease. Educational backmatter includes a glossary of key terms, additional information on asthma from the medical editor, and information about the book's creators.

Mayo Clinic Press Kids creates empowering health and wellness content in partnership with pediatric experts. Proceeds from the sale of every book go to benefit important medical research and education at Mayo Clinic.

Guillaume Federighi, aka Hey Gee, is a French and American author and illustrator. He began his career in 1998 in Paris, France. He also spent a few decades exploring the world of street art and graffiti in different European capitals. After moving to New York in 2008, he worked with many companies and brands, developing a reputation in graphic design and illustration for his distinctive style of translating complex ideas into simple and timeless visual stories. He is also the owner and creative director of Hey Gee Studio, a full-service creative agency based in New York City.

Charles is a high-energy 7 year old with asthma. Born prematurely, his family has helped him manage his chronic lung disease throughout his life. He now uses an inhaler daily, and a nebulizer when he gets sick, to help him keep up with his active life.

Manuel Arteta, M.D., is a pediatric pulmonologist at Mayo Clinic Children's Center in Rochester, Minnesota, with special interests in severe asthma in children and childhood interstitial lung diseases.
