“There，s a mother in PICU(儿童重症监护病房)who wants to talk about a kit she received．”the nurse told me．“Something about it made her cry．”

I’ve been a child-1ife specialist at the Cleveland Clinic Children’s Hospital since 2000.I help families

understand diagnoses and treatment plans and manage the ups and downs that come with caring for a sick child．Tough talks with parents are part of the job，which still makes me feel nervous．

The kits the nurse was talking about were something I had recently introduced to the hospital：Comfort Kits from Guideposts．They were supposed to make a child’s experience here easier，not upsetting．

When I came across the kits at a conference．I fell in love with them．A treasure box of items designed not only to entertain kids，but to comfort and inspire them．There’s a coloring book，a stress ball，a CD of relaxing music，a hairy star named Sparkle，a journal and much more．I really believed these kits would help kids．I wished I hadn’t been mistaken．

At the patient’s room in PICU I saw a little girl，sleeping soundly，surrounded by tubes and machines．My eyes met her mother's．The kit was open on her lap and tears were running down her cheeks．

The mother shook her head．“This has been one of the worst days of my life．I felt so scared and

alone．Then I was handed this box．I know it’s for my daughter，but it's just the comfort I needed．I wanted to say thank you．”

With that I knew Comfort Kits belonged here．We’ve been using them for almost three years now．Each child who’s admitted to the hospital receives one．Every day I see kids coloring，journaling，playing with Sparkle．

But as this mom showed me Comfort Kits aren’t just for kids．The hope they bring，is felt by the whole family．

“A good book might clarify something you knew little about，transform your world view，or move you in ways you didn’t think possible．The Soul of an Octopus(章鱼)delivers on all three，”the magazine New Scientist commented．

After writing about birds，pigs and tigers，US naturalist Sy Montgomery decided to choose these

many-footed animals as the subject of her latest book，The Soul of an Octopus：a surprising exploration into the wonder of consciousness．

“Here is animal with poisonous liquid like a snake，a beak(喙)like a parrot，and ink like an old-fashioned pen．It can weigh as much as a man and extend as long as a car，yet it can pour its baggy；boneless body through

an opening the size of all orange．It can change color and shape．It has a tongue covered with teeth．It can taste with its skin．”Montgomery explained to the National Geographic on why octopuses inspired her．

What Montgomery is able to show in The Soul of an Octopus is that octopuses are creatures who exhibit personality，intelligence and emotion，despite having nervous systems completely different from our own．She uses different experiments to show that they possess consciousness as well as individual personalities．For
