5.0 out of 5 stars We brought this book with us to the Emergency Room!, Jan 17 2006
By J. Nygaard - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Going To The Dentist (Paperback)
I got this book for my son (he was 2 1/2 yr. at the time) so he would be prepared for the dentist when we went. He loved the book and wanted to read it over AND over, and loved finding the duck that is hidden in some of the pages. But it came SO helpful when my son cut his lip open and he had to go to the ER to get stiches. Before we left I grabbed this book to read while we were there because I had a feeling he would need stiches and we would talk about the part in the book when the boy gets a shot. It was SO helpful in trying to explain to our son what he needed to expect and he understood! My son is now 3 and still asks to read this book! I highly recommend it!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for kids who might be scared, Aug 13 2007
By K. Fry - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Going to the Dentist (Paperback)
Although this book gives a good chronology of what happens at the dentist, I found it cold and distant. Neither child's feelings are addressed. I was expecting a book that might describe how funny it feels to have someone poking around in your mouth, what the mouthwash tastes like or how wierd it is to go so far back in the chair. And there is absolutely no mention that either child might be nervous or scared. Instead it's just a list of statements. The older child needs a filling. Come on, HOW SCARY IS THAT? And yet the kid doesn't even blink.

This book is neither personal nor engaging.

If I had known it was like this I wouldn't have bought it.

This review is from: Going to the Dentist (Paperback)
I have a two year old who has not yet been to the dentist. I bought this to help prepare her for her first dentist appointment. This is now one of her favorite bedtime books and she enjoys finding the "hidden" yellow duck on each page. I liked that they explained how the denist and hygenist wear masks, the bright light to see in patients mouths, and that the chair reclines. I had not even thought about how a young child may be intimated by these things.
