4.0 out of 5 stars.  Good book, wish they skipped the shot and drill part, February 27, 2014
By I.S.
This book is really good for preparing a toddler for a first dentist visit, but wish they'd skipped the shot and drill part. Still, it seems to have really helped my daughter get ready for her first visit.

4.0 out of 5 stars.  Pretty Good Book, March 29, 2011
By badgers22
Bought this book hoping it would prepare my daughter for the dentist. She loves it but in the end, it didn't help. Maybe we should have read it the day of or the day before the appointment. I wish they would have introduced the word "cavity". My daughter also likes to find the little duck hidden in the pages.

4.0 out of 5 stars.  helpful for nervous children, February 10, 2010
By Jaci Patterson
This book isn't really a 'story'. It's just simply showing a process of kids making an appointment and then going to the dentist. There's no really exciting part or anything, but it would be a good book to show children who get nervous in new situations. Especially kids with autism or other behavior disorders. It gives them each step to the process that they can follow.

5.0 out of 5 stars.  A great story / read for toddlers, July 15, 2008
By David Austin
It's a good idea to start early so when that time comes to go to the dentist, they will be more willing to sit there just long enough to complete the checkup.

1.0 out of 5 stars.  Not for kids who might be scared, August 13, 2007
By K. Fry
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.
