"Children universally take it for granted that their parents love them and will never abandon them. Not by bread alone—children need not only food, water, and shelter but also a loving family to provide these things to them. Dealing with a child not only as a patient but also as a person helps a pediatrician become a part of the flowing river of life with its constant stories, the content and complexity of which are many times more fantastic and thrilling than the most sophisticated science fiction novel."—from the book
Vladimir Tsesis grew up in the former Soviet Union and practiced general pediatrics there for ten years before emigrating to the United States in 1974. After completing his residency at Illinois Masonic Medical Center of Chicago, he resumed his private practice in Illinois. Dr. Tsesis created a unique patient-pleasing office concept, and is the author of several articles published in pediatric magazines. Today he is a clinical assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

“A wonderful reminder of what a gift children and life can be.”
“This is a poignant look at the life of a primary care doctor, who has lovely stories to tell and rejoices in the telling. Oh, to have such a doctor ministering to every family with small children…With his wisdom, Tsesis gives new meaning to the cliche ‘good medicine’.”
“Preserves Dr. Tsesis’ gentle bedside manner, his love of people, and his ministering patient visits.”
