Book Review by Joy Hannabass – I Have Constipation

 

Reviewed By Joy Hannabass for Readers’ Favorite (5 Stars)

The cast of characters in Chicken Cha Cha – I have Constipation! by Anna Phang is Cha Cha, Fi Fi and Cha Cha’s mother, Sofie, and Mr. Beaver. One day, Cha Cha’s friends came over to play and his mother called for him while he was in the bathroom. When he came out, they all went out to play, but Cha Cha didn’t feel like playing. His friends started asking all kinds of questions, but Cha Cha didn’t want to tell them what the problem was. Finally after they kept bugging him, Cha Cha told them he had a problem called constipation and it was making him feel sick! He was surprised to find out that his friends said they’ve had the same problem sometimes, too. They really wanted to help their friend, so they all put their heads together to come up with things that would help. They thought of several things like juices, fiber, vegetables and fruits, and exercising. Cha Cha was willing to try anything to help. Do you think Cha Cha’s friends suggested the right choices?

This is a very cute little book, and it was very different from any I have read before. The main character had a problem with constipation. Though this is not an easy subject to talk about to kids, I think this book would be an awesome help to kids. Reading Chicken Cha Cha – I have Constipation! to your child before constipation occurs could keep your little ones from being afraid when this happens to them. Because we all know that it will happen at one time or another. And I love the cute illustrations that go with the story perfectly.
