It’s time for Nicky to visit the doctor, and thanks to Richard Scarry’s beloved Busytown characters, this checkup is an exciting adventure of discovery. From seeing how tall he is and having his eyesight checked, to listening to a heartbeat and getting a shot, Nicky—and other young children—will have their minds put at ease when they see that a trip to the doctor is nothing to be afraid of. -- GoodReads
Low energy (take two Go Dog Goes and call me in the morning).
This book was such a big help when my son required frequent doctor visits for an illness. This Mommy is very grateful that we had this book to come along to each visit.
Nicky goes for a check up at the doctors office and tells you about everything he saw and what happened at the doctors that day.
