Overview
Lively and colorful, I Go to the Dentist is just the book parents need to prepare young children for their very first dental checkup! Step by step, the rhyming text explains everything a child will encounter during a visit to the dentist’s office… from the cleaning and the x-rays to the special tools and little round sink. The friendly dentist in the story stresses that good dental hygiene and regular checkups represent one way we can do the mitzva of guarding our health. And of course, there’s always a prize waiting at the end!
