Who Orders in Bulk

Hospitals, Imaging Departments & Child Life Teams

A child should not meet radiology for the first time when they are scared and waiting for an X-ray. Child life specialists and imaging departments use Rachel the Radiographer to make visits less frightening and to show kids the friendly expert behind the machine. Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and Wisconsin Children's Hospital have both adopted the book. The 20-Book Department Bundle is the most common starting order.

Schools, Districts & Teachers

Career day keeps forgetting one of the largest healthcare professions in the country. This book brings radiologic technologists into career week, community helper units, STEM day, and classroom libraries. DeKalb County School District and Decatur City Schools have adopted it. Most teachers start with the 5-Book Classroom Starter; districts order at the 25+ and 100+ tiers.

Libraries

A diverse, Library of Congress registered children's STEM career book that introduces young readers to healthcare helpers beyond doctors and nurses. Rachel the Radiographer is already in public library collections in the US and in seven public libraries across British Columbia, Canada.

STEM Programs, Camps & Youth Organizations

STEM is not only coding and robots. This book shows kids how science, technology, and kindness work together in healthcare, and introduces a career most STEM programs have never mentioned. Ask about pairing a bulk order with a virtual author visit.

Perfect for storytime, community helper units, and every curious kid who asks what happens during an X-ray. Pair the book with the companion coloring book for a complete activity.
