Reviews by leading experts in Dental Sleep Medicine.
Dr. Shereen Lim, one of Australia’s pioneering dentists, holds a unique qualification in dental sleep medicine. With over a decade of experience in managing sleep-disordered breathing, she has become a renowned author of the book “Breathe, Sleep, and Thrive: Discover How Airway Health Can Unlock Your Child’s Greater Health, Learning, and Potential.” Dr. Lim advocates for a shift in approach towards airway health, emphasizing the importance of addressing dysfunctional breathing and symptoms from infancy rather than merely managing them.
With practical tips for parents at the end, the book serves as a simple and approachable tool to help promote healthier breathing for children, especially for families dealing with challenges like allergies or nasal congestion. It’s a wonderful way to make Storytime both enjoyable and an introduction to habits that support overall health and wellness.
This thoughtful and supportive book shines a light on an often-overlooked aspect of health, turning a simple concept into an empowering resource for families. By blending storytelling with practical guidance, it not only encourages awareness but also inspires families to prioritize healthier breathing together in a fun and memorable way.“

“My Dog Myo and My Nose” is a delightful children’s book that cleverly emphasizes the importance of nasal breathing in a way that is fun, engaging, and accessible for young readers. Through the charming character of Myo, a playful dog who loves sniffing his way through the world, the book motivates children to embrace the habit of breathing through their noses.
The story highlights how kids, just like Myo, can enjoy sniffing adventures if they practice clean, healthy nasal breathing. It makes the message practical and actionable, offering helpful instructions toward the end to teach kids how to keep their noses clear and promote optimal breathing.
As an ENT specialist, I see firsthand the impact of nasal breathing on sleep quality, cognitive function, and overall health. This book simplifies that message for children, encouraging them to develop habits that can support better breathing and wellness from a young age. “My Dog Myo and My Nose” is an essential read for parents and educators looking to introduce the importance of nasal breathing in a fun, practical way that resonates with kids.”
