First experiences: Going to the dentist ISBN: 9781845380120
Hewitt, Sally
Published by QED Publications (Start Reading series), 2004
Aimed at children beginning to read, this could be used as preparation for younger children too. Very large print and colour photos take us on a boy's first visit to the dentist. We see him in the waiting room with his mum, seeing the big 'magic chair' for the first time, having his teeth checked and cleaned, being shown how to brush his teeth, and then at home, showing his younger brother how to brush properly. There is a very simple glossary, an index, and a page of notes for carers and teachers. A good introduction.
