Children's books for tube fed kids
What Are My Tubey Books?
A colorful storybook collection that gives young children with feeding tubes a character and story they can relate to.
Who Are My Tubey Books For?
Are you the parent of a tube fed child? A feeding therapist? Or maybe you're the grandparent, aunt, caregiver, or friend? If you know and love a girl or boy with a feeding tube of any kind, "My Tubey" books are for them! They want to see other children with a tube in their nose. A button in their tummy. A central line in their chest. A backpack with a feeding pump, a line running from under their shirts. This is their reality, and they want to know they are not alone. "My Tubey" books are bright, colorful, friendly, and educational. Choose one for the tube fed kiddo in your life and watch their eyes light up when they see someone "just like me."

Hear what GayLloyd Pinder, PH.D., CCC-SLP, C/NDT (Seattle) says about "My Tubey":
As a therapist working with families and children with feeding tubes, "My Tubey" is a wonderful gift!!! Tube fed children need to be able to relate to their tube as a valuable and positive piece of them for as long as they have it. This delightfully matter-of-fact story answers the parent's question "how do I help my child feel okay about their feeding tube?" And answers a child's question “who else has a feeding tube like me?” WOW, and thank you!
Here's What Parents Are Saying:
"Sarah LOVES her new book! Thank you!! She is so happy! She carried it around the house tonight..saying, 'I love My Tubey! I love my book!' Your book helped her realize that she isn't just different: She is special! THANK YOU."
