Fifth Grader Nick seemed to have it all, a cell phone, a video game system, even a great dog. He was a good student, had a ton of friends and even played travel baseball. The one thing Nick did not have was listening skills. He was easily distracted by his phone, or music, or being lost in his own thoughts and missed out on directions from his coaches and teachers. He tries to pay attention and focus but it's not his fault his friends text him right as he leaves the house in the morning, or he was playing his favorite game and was almost done with the last level when his Dad called him for dinner and missed his favorite meal. His Dad told him that if he does not start to listen, one day his ears might fall right off, and then what? Nick laughed and thought that would never happen, that was just crazy talk. One morning, the craziest thing happened to Nick, he woke up with no ears! What is he going to do now? Without listening skills, you become lost in a world that is constantly trying to tell you something. Will Nick ever be able to hear again? Does he even need his ears to listen? How will he even wear his sunglasses?

Ear infections are still the leading reason parents take their child to a doctor. To combat infections, parents and doctors employ arsenals of antihistimines and antibiotics, and too quickly resort to ear tubes and surgery. In this updated and revised second edition of his bestselling Childhood Ear Infections, Dr. Michael Schmidt describes the current controversy in medical journals questioning existing treatments for chronic earaches. The causes of otitis media, Dr. Schmidt argues, are a series of events which flourish when poor nutrition occurs: the immune system is lowered, excess mucus is produced, and vitamin and mineral absorption is inadequate. Careful attention to diet and nutrition to prevent food allergies, and the use of acupressure, homeopathic medicine, and herbal medicine are effective in healing earaches and preventing their recurrence. Healing Childhood Ear Infections offers the most compelling critique to date of existing treatments and the effectiveness of alternative therapies.
