Editorial Reviews

These colorful titles feature candid photographs of friendly community helpers in different situations with accompanying texts describing what each professional is doing... Readers are introduced to pediatricians, surgeons, nurse practitioners, and EMTs. Liebman offers a very positive view of how doctors help to make people feel better, but doesn't hide the fact that some medical procedures are painful... Recommended for schools and public libraries.
