Synopsis

Lily the First Aid Hero – Stories to Save Lives



A beautifully illustrated children’s book that teaches life-saving skills in a playful and engaging way.



Meet Lily, a cheerful and brave 12-year-old who always carries her red first-aid backpack. During her summer holidays in Ibiza, she finds herself in real-life emergency situations—from unconscious patients and choking friends to insect stings, seizures, and near-drownings. But thanks to what she’s learned in class, Lily knows what to do: she stays calm, takes action, and helps others with kindness and courage.



This book is ideal for children aged 5 to 7 who want to:

• Recognize when someone needs help


• Call emergency services confidently


• Perform simple but vital first-aid steps


• Understand the importance of staying calm

Each story ends with clear takeaways, reinforcing what to do in each situation. Whether it’s placing someone in the recovery position, giving rescue breaths, or dealing with a severe allergic reaction, children will gain knowledge that can truly save lives.



🌍 Global emergency awareness:

Emergency numbers vary from country to country. Lily teaches young readers to always check the local number when they travel or live abroad.

• USA/Canada: 911


• UK/Ireland/Most of Europe: 112


• Spain: 061 (medical), 112 (general)


• Australia: 000


• Japan: 119

Perfect for parents, teachers, and caregivers

This book is more than just a story—it's a practical tool for early learning. Use it at home, in the classroom, or in first-aid awareness workshops. It's ideal for:

• Starting conversations about emergencies


• Reinforcing key life skills in a gentle, age-appropriate way


• Supporting health education curricula
