About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler is nervous about a doctor's visit or is fascinated by the loud sirens of emergency vehicles.

This book is an ideal choice for building empathy and courage in toddlers aged 1 to 3. By transforming a potentially scary situation into a helpful mission, it empowers young readers to see doctors and paramedics as friendly helpers. The sturdy construction and hands-on elements make it perfect for active learners who process information through play.

Sensitive Topics
The book deals with a physical injury (a fall from a bike). The approach is direct but very gentle and secular. The resolution is hopeful, focusing on the care received rather than the pain of the accident.
