I'm not a medical professional... IIRC, a tetanus shot is good for ten years, so if you had one four years ago, or five or six, you're still protected by it. If you needed one, I suspect nine days after the injury would be too late. If the redness persists or pus is present, it's definitely infected.
The Tiger Rising, written by the award winning author Kate DiCamillo, is an engaging story of two children whose lives are thrown together in a small town in Florida.
Note: STARLIGHT, the New Prophecy, is #2 on the New York Timeâs childrenâs bestseller list as of 4/13/06. The series, WARRIORS, is the work of author Erin Hunter, who is actually the nom-de-plume of two writers, Cherith Baldry and Kate Cary, and the brainchild of Victoria Holmes, editor for Working Partners LTD. With 10 books in the series and more titles on the way, the cat-clan craze is sweeping the âtween set.
