Maria’s Marvelous Bones

Carrie Kollias is an orthopaedic surgeon from Alberta and the author of Maria’s Marvelous Bones, an educational picture book that takes young readers on a journey from a fractured bone to the hospital and home again for healing. Along the way, readers will meet the nurses, doctor, surgeon, and technicians responsible for helping a bone to heal.
