SOLVED. Children's book I used to see at my doctor's office in the 70s. Two children (a boy and girl?) meet illnesses that have been personified as monsters. [s]

I don't know if this book was in wide publication or just for doctor's offices.

The Vi-Daylin Book of Minnie the Mump and Other Stories by Paul Tripp? This blog post: http://blogs.publishersweekly.com/blo... mentions it: personified illnesses like CLARA the COLD, CHARLIE CHICKEN POX, HERMAN GERMAN MEASLES, MOLLY MEASLES, SCARLET FEVER...

That could be it. I don't remember the cover, but it was published in the right time period.

Thanks. I will certainly check it out.

You're welcome. Let us know when you find out whether it's the book or not.

Were you able to determine if that was the right book?

This is the correct book.
