The Shots Book A Little Brother’s
Superhero Tale		 Ethan Posard Sometimes it takes a kid to explain something to another kid. My name is Ethan, I am 17 years old, and I wrote The Shots Book, to share what I wish I had known back when I was getting my kindergarten shots. In a superhero story that is easy for children to understand, and based on my real-life experiences, I explain how vaccines work, how they protect our own health, and the health of others in our community to empower kids and help make the doctor’s visit easier.
