Description: This book can clearly help children understand why vaccinations are necessary. Compared to the huge syringe the nurse pulls out to treat Mr. Giant when he's suffering from illness, a regular vaccination needle seems quite small. The smile Mr. Giant wears while getting his shot speaks volumes. This story continues from "Mr. Giant's Belly Button Is a Tangerine Belly Button." Mr. Giant confidently heads off to get his vaccination, thinking it will feel like nothing more than a mosquito bite. But when he sees the enormous syringe, he gets scared and runs away. That night, Mr. Giant has a terrifying dream: his whole body burns with fever, the room shakes, and the ceiling bares its teeth as if to swallow him whole. Unable to bear the pain any longer, he ends up needing an even bigger shot in his dream. When he wakes up, Mr. Giant decides to get his vaccination after all. Instead of dreading one big shot, he imagines it as ten little pinpricks instead — and with that thought, he no longer worries about getting sick or about the shot hurting.
