On the way to a doctor checkup, a young child asks an important
question: Do animals that live in really cold places ever get sick? From
the same author as Did Dinosaurs Have Dentists?, this picture
book uses Arctic and Antarctic creatures to lessen anxiety about the
doctor. Can penguins catch pneumonia? Can a caribou get chicken pox? By
introducing ailments through charmingly drawn animals, this humorous
look at common childhood illnesses will ease the fears and worries many
kids have about visiting the doctor. The colorfully illustrated story
contains 14 common terms related to children's health, as well as a
glossary of fun, scientific facts about each of the animals featured.
