[Kristina Bulluck]

This book explains what a doctor does. You can also use this with children to help with the nervousness of having to go to the doctor. I like how they use real pictures of children and and doctors to make it look even more real and found.


LE: The children would create what they think that goes on at the doctor and we would all talk about our experiences at the doctor.

Great book for introducing occupations.
