About

Have you ever seen a mama bird sleep? Probably not. Because she's always watching, preparing, and protecting the sleeping birds in her nest. 

Here at Sleeping Bird Books, we like to be prepared––for everything life throws at us and our little ones. 

Magic Air: Ten Kid-Sized Steps to Surgery was born out of the need to prepare kiddos for surgery. It is the first picture book to guide kids through the steps to surgery, with kid-friendly language and beautiful illustrations.

Magic Air is written by Alana Smith, a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) specializing in anesthesia (the magic air!). Alana is a columnist in Alabama where she lives with her husband and two boys. 

Thank you for checking us out!
