The simple, three pronged approach, Cut, Clean and Cover, prevents infection and saves lives. The book was written by Orlaith & Kathleen Staunton, the mother and sister of Rory Staunton, who died at 12 years old from sepsis (the bodys life threatening response to an infection) because a scrape during a regular gym class at his school was noticed but not treated. Brilliantly illustrated by fine artist Cecilia Mandrile, Ouch! I Got a Cut! is whimsical, welcoming and entertaining, and will forever cement the importance of wound care for young children.
