This is a great book for getting children comfortable with what might happen at the dentist! It even shows the things that might seem scary to children, such as drilling into a tooth. It explains the importance of brushing your teeth and flossing as well!

There was no lesson in this book. It is just about a family's trip to the dentist. It would be a good story to read to a young child who is scared of going to the dentist.
