Jerald Altman is an Otolaryngologist-Head and Neck Surgeon (ENT Doctor) and has been in practice for 21 years as of 2021. After publishing many peer-reviewed journal articles, he recognized the need for a children’s book dealing with a common problem in his practice. He was recognized as a Phoenix Top Doc in 2010, 2011, 2012 & 2013, and 2018.
He is a general Otolaryngologist and he loves taking care of children’s ear, nose and throat issues. Accordingly, the idea for this book came from his pediatric patients and their incessant need to put things where they shouldn’t go! He is married, has 3 children and lives in Phoenix, AZ. He enjoys woodturning as a hobby and climbs Camelback Mountain sporadically and mountain bikes regularly. While he enjoyed the experience of co-authoring his first children’s book with Richard Jacobson, he has no idea what a topiary or tablescape is!
