A great book about a first visit to the dentist!

My 2 grandchildren really liked (actually, Loved) this book. I ordered other Berenstain Bears books.The Berenstain Bears Visit the Dentist (First Time Books(R))

Good deal

My son likes the book. It was on a list on a dentists web site to help him cope with his first dentist visit. I recommend this book. Mike Carrillo

Great, great book to read before taking a child to the dentist for the first time!

Grab this book - this one should be in every library! It's a great hit at our house because in places, it's quite funny! Sister wakes up one morning with a loose tooth and thus, talks funny! The words are spelled as such so my little one gets quite the chuckle out of how sister says certain "s" words! Anyway, sister spends the entire day wiggling her loose tooth until it's time to take brother to the dentist for his checkup. The dentist finds that brother has a cavity and lets sister stand over the chair and watch while he fills brother's tooth. Brother does try to torment sister quite a bit about how the dentist is going to "yank our her loose tooth," so she is somewhat timid to get into the chair. However, she does and while she is busy asking questions and looking at the dentist's "yanker," the dentist feels her tooth in a cloth, wiggles it around and out it comes! Sister had no idea it even happened! She's pretty excited and thrilled about all of it and was very glad that brother was wrong about the yanker! She gets a dime from the tooth fairy and was very excited! This book does an excellent job in describing what happens when you go to the dentist. It's great for getting rid of those little jitters and it really is accurate. Great job and I highly recommend it!

my first bernstein bear book

I was 6 years old in 1989 when my mom bought me this book. I've been hooked ever since.

Help kids who are vervous about the dentist.

When sister gets a loose tooth that won't come out, mama take her to the dentist to have it removed. With brother telling her how much it hurts she becomes quite scared.This book is great! It helps kids understand how going to the dentist is not scary or painfull!
