Miles to the Moon is a story about a boy named Miles who has a huge imagination and tons of hope. Miles also has something called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome or POTS. Even though POTS makes Miles' body tired and not work very well, in his dreams and his love of all things outer space, Miles finds a way to help people with POTS.

I really like the fact that this book can help a child with POTS feel that they are not alone in this world with this disease. A very positive approach. The information on the disease was concise and well explained from a personal experience perspective. Overall a very interesting and easy to read book, coupled with some fun adventure and positive thinking for a future cure of POTS.

In reading the children's book, Miles to the Moon, it is apparent the author has an incredible way of describing a debilitating medical issue to children. She does an incredible job allowing the reader an opportunity to travel to space, and even dream of a future without the POTS disability. I would highly recommend any of her children's books to those kids who want to understand their problem without all of the adult jargon that comes with talking to medical personnel.

- Sherri Brown RN, MSN

This book is written in such a way that the concepts are easy to understand for young readers and adults alike. What an innovative way to convey what it is for children to live with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. The author uses true imagination intertwined with real life medical effects of a debilitating condition.

Miles to the Moon is a delightful story demonstrating the resiliency of children dealing with physical limitations. Ms. Kuhns captures the magical imagination of children and at the same time helps the reader understand the imperfect world in which we live. -Dr. Diane Katsma RN,
