I really liked this post - breaking things down to a primer level is a great way to get to the essence of things. My mother always said that if she wanted to learn something quickly, she'd check out a children's book on the topic. Nice surprise, this one.

Thanks Bryan. Your ma was right! I've learnt a lot from Ladybird books for that reason

Awesome - and adorable!

I never know what style you're going to come up with next - I really enjoy these posts, Terry. The pictures are the perfect compliment to this one - bravo!

Thanks Rebecca. Actually, neither do I 😂 Glad you like the artwork. I was attempting a more realistic style. 😂

If your artistic rendering of that bump is in any way realistic, Terry, I'm surprised you're not still IN hospital... 😲

Not at all what I expected, but it works, the brief and specific info and, especially, the graphics!

It reminded me of the social stories we used to create to initiate our neuro-diverse students to -some of -the pitfalls of life and the complexity of interactions. Having to strip right back to remove assumptions and facilitate a clear and practical understanding, sounds easy but often quite a sophisticated manoeuvre. As always, you draw the cutest cats!

Thanks, Mya. Yes, I know what you mean. The finished product is deceptively simple: it was quite challenging to extract just the most important aspects.

It's a direct approach. I like it. And the art.
