Topsy And Tim Go To The Doctor

by Jean Adamson, Gareth Adamson

Topsy and Tim find fun and adventure in the real world. Their engaging stories are reassuring for young children having first experiences of their own. In Topsy and Tim: Go to the Doctor, Tim wakes up with a sore throat, so Mummy and Dad decide he needs to visit the Doctor. Dr Sims looks in his mouth, listens to his chest and soon knows what's wrong. Tim goes home with a bottle of medicine to make him feel better, but Topsy soon starts to feel worse!

A trusted and well-loved pair who can help guide parents and children through 'first experiences', Topsy and Tim books have been beautifully updated with contemporary artwork. Topsy & Tim remain instantly recognisable to parents while in a fresh style that will appeal to a new generation of fans. These wonderful books deserve a place on every child's bookshelves.

Reviews

[Sophie Crane]

We love all the Topsy and Tim books. They are uncomplicated stories about two young children in everyday situations. They make life experiences, which can seem very daunting for a young child sometimes, very familiar and therefore can help to overcome fears.

I kind of liked this book because its about a boy called Tim and a girl named topsy who had a sore throat and went to the doctor.
