This book is packed full of great vocabulary and cute, simple illustrations, and (slightly long) text to make a little one feel more comfortable about going to the doctor. It talks about some pretty advanced things/vocab, but does a decent job of explaining them for little minds. It does talk about how you might get a vaccine at the doctor's appointment, so if you're not one to vaccinate this book isn't for you.
