What to read after Pimple Perfect?

Officially recognized as the first illustrative children’s book about acne!

Why is this happening to me?!?!

William goes to school one day when his classmates notice a bunch of mysterious red bumps on his face! Feeling afraid, William desperately searches for answers and is introduced to the world of acne.

Based on a true story, Pimple Perfect is the perfect way to introduce your child and/or student to acne, the most common skin condition in the world. With Andrew Oh’s educational, childhood story and his sister Jackie Oh’s youthful and endearing illustrations, this family-oriented picture book teaches young readers about the ins and outs of acne and how to love their own skin regardless.

Promoting Acne Education

Acne is the most common skin condition in the world. However, many kids do not receive formal education on what exactly is acne nor what causes the pimples and bumps they see. Pimple Perfect walks readers through the concept of acne, what causes it, and the best hygiene practices to potentially prevent outbreaks.

Eliminating Acne Stigma

Unfortunately, acne is often stigmatized in various communities, especially schools. A large part of this is due to a lack of acne awareness and representation in media. This has caused students who have struggled with acne to lose confidence and grapple with self-image. Pimple Perfect encourages readers to accept themselves for who they uniquely are and provides real-life examples of how they can make a positive, accepting impact in their own schools.
