Horace in hospital ISBN: 9780434965199
Carey, Joanna
Published by Heinemann, 1999
Horace and Morris are twins. One day when they are mucking about, Horace takes a leap over an ironing board and knocks himself out. Morris has the presence of mind to phone an ambulance, and it develops that Horace has broken his leg. Morris tries hard not to feel jealous, but is is difficult when Horace gets so much attention. Life in hospital looks like such fun. It is only when Morris gets praised for calling the ambulance and is made to feel a hero that he is able to stop being jealous. Not much on hospital procedures in the story, but there is an understanding male nurse. The twins are black. Large print and good pictures.
