Reach for this book when your child is spiraling into anxiety about an upcoming check-up or the dreaded possibility of a shot. It is a perfect tool for breaking the tension through laughter rather than logic. The story follows Froggy as he navigates the typical steps of a doctor visit, from the waiting room to the tongue depressor, all while maintaining his signature chaotic energy. While it addresses the very real fear of needles, it does so with a slapstick twist that empowers the child by making the situation feel silly rather than scary. This is an ideal choice for preschoolers and early elementary students who respond well to humor as a coping mechanism. By the end, the 'scary' doctor is the one who is worn out, leaving your child feeling like they are the brave hero of their own medical adventure.
