Random House Books for Young Readers, 1981

Not All Doctors Are Bad.
Most children are afraid of going to the doctor (well a lot of adults are, too, but for completely different reasons). When the word doctor is mentioned to kids images of needles, blood, bandages, and strange looking objects come to mind. Reading THE BERENSTAIN BEARS GO TO THE DOCTOR may help relieve some of the fears that children have when they know they are going to the doctor. In the story, ...

Cuts to the bone.
Cut by Patricia McCormick is a quick and brilliant book that deals with a teenage girl named Callie who cuts herself whenever she feels depressed or overwhelmed. I read this book about six years ago and I still think about this harrowing piece of teen literature since. The main character refuses to talk to her therapist since she cannot cut, the only power she has left is her refusal to ...

great to prepare a child for surgery
This book was a great help to prepare my 4 year old daughter for surgery. Once she was at the hospital, everything was known and already seen in the book and she had fun.. I highly recommend it to relieve the anxiety before a surgery

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1981

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 ...

Helpful in preparing my 3 year old for first dentist visit
Fun and light hearted view from Dora's perspective how fun and important it is to visit a dentist. This book familiarizes young ones with the experience of visiting the dentist, from the tools used to details of the entire examination. My son likes the story and asks me to read it often.

Tells It Like It Is
This is a good book because it tells it alot like it is. The writing format I didn't like but the poem at the beginning was inspiring. When I started reading it I was reading it like a poem because of the style but it was still good.

The Lives They Left Behind: Suitcases from a State Hospital Attic

25 reviews
Darby Penney, Peter Stastny

Bellevue Literary Press, 2008

Real Stories with Real Power
"The Lives They Left Behind: Suitcases from a State Hospital Attic" is a straightforward book about an ugly part of our history. Its power, however, is that it demands that we look at the here and now. By clearly and simply reconstructing what little CAN be reconstructed of the lives of souls forgotten in a huge mental institution the authors left me with a haunting question: where are we ...

Doctor Maisy
If your child loves Maisy books as much as mine does, definitely add this one to your collection! Not only are the pictures colorful and inviting, but it also makes going to the doctor seem fun and exciting! Plus, it's always great to see Maisy and her friends playing different roles and doing fun things! Each page brings delight to my child's eyes!

Another Dora book to help with tough situations
Personally, I'm not a huge Dora fan, but my daughter is, so I'm looking past the fact that it's Dora to review it. We've had Dora goes to the dentist for awhile now, and it was really helpful when we went to the dentist the last time, so I figured this would be a good addition to our Dora library, and I was right. Like in the dentist book, Dora introduces several of the doctor's tools ...

imaginative and compelling
I really liked this book! It was so intreaging, and really captures big imaginations like mine. I had dreams that definately were rooted in me reading before bedtime. I am not religious, but found the religious themes interesting, especially with todays society leaning so much towards secular views. The end was sortof sad, but very appropriate. I couldnt imagine it ending any other way. (It was ...

My 14 yr old daughter who does not care to read has loved this series. She struggled thru volumes 4-6, but breezed thru 7-9 and is looking forward to the next in the series. Highly recommended from my standpoint.

A MUST-HAVE if your child to going to the hospital
When my son was going to have tubes put in his ears and his Adnoids removed, we purchased this book. He was just barely 3 years old, but this book explained on HIS level everything that was going to happen to him (from the little boy's ear first hurting, to everything that happens at the hospital before and after the surgery). We took the book to the hospital and he pointed out to me where ...

wonderful
this is a wonderful book. It's better suited for reading with a small group rather than with a class. The asides are lost with a class. Even so my class walked away with an amazing amount of new knowledge about their teeth

I wish I'd found this book sooner!
I thought "Mothering Mother" was enlightening, encouraging, humorous and heartwarming. I read excepts from it out loud to my husband and he asked me if Carol O'Dell was writing about her mother or MY mother! My Mom, the Ancient Toddler, has quite a few of the traits that Carol's Mother had. Carol doesn't pretend to have all the answers, but she does a terrific job exploring and writing about ...
