All about Asthma is a fictional auto biography about the life of William and what it was like for him to deal with asthma. It is along book at 40 pages but it does a very good job being an easy read for kids of young ages. It is very specific about what happens to William while he deals with asthma but the way it is written makes it easy to understand and relate to what William is dealing with. I would say that this book is meant for students in third grade until fifth grade, though it could be understood by students in first and second grade but it would have to be read to them due to the size.
