This is a funny book to read and enjoy. The doctor helps everyone else and then needs help himself, and all of the poeple he helped work together to help the doctor.This book is cute and shows that everyone needs help sometimes, not just students.
I choose to read Dr. Duck's because I love ducks. Also, as I was reading I thought it was a very cute children's book. Some of the illustrations were funny. This book is about a duck thats a doctor and he goes around helping all the sick animals get well. Once he's done his busy day he goes home an doesn't feel to well. He had gotten ill so the other animals came over to his home to take care of him.
This book we see how Dr. Duck goes around and helps all the sick animals on the farm. This book would be perfect to read and maybe make children more comfortable when they go to the Doctor. We all know going to the doctor is a big fear for some children. It also rhymes and makes it easy to read and easy for they to follow.
This story was about a duck who was a doctor. The duck drove his red van to see different animals that were sick. He gave the animals medicine to make them feel better. When the duck got home he said that he had a fever and was going to lay in the bed. Then, the other animals came over to the duck's house and gave him some medicine. The next day the duck woke up and felt perfectly normal. This story teaches children to help each other out when someone gets sick because you never know when you will get sick and would want someone to help you out.
