i love it,so does my son! he will be making his first trip to the dentist soon-ad at 29m old we need all the help we can get!

the only part that is questionable is how Sister gets her loose tooth pulled.It even gave me the willies!

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 brother to the dentist for his checkup. The dentist finds that brother has a cavity and lets sister stand over the chair and watch while he fills brother's tooth. Brother does try to torment sister quite a bit about how the dentist is going to "yank our her loose tooth," so she is somewhat timid to get into the chair. However, she does and while she is busy asking questions and looking at the dentist's "yanker," the dentist feels her tooth in a cloth, wiggles it around and out it comes! Sister had no idea it even happened! She's pretty excited and thrilled about all of it and was very glad that brother was wrong about the yanker! She gets a dime from the tooth fairy and was very excited!

This book does an excellent job in describing what happens when you go to the dentist. It's great for getting rid of those little jitters and it really is accurate. Great job and I highly recommend it!

I bought it to prepare for my daughter's first dentist apptment.
I read to her before she went to sleep and brought the book to the dentist office. She didn't cry a bit and mentioned how her doctor had the same tools as the books. Great book!

My 2 grandchildren really liked (actually, Loved) this book. I ordered other Berenstain Bears books.The Berenstain Bears Visit the Dentist (First Time Books(R))

I used to read these to my friend's little girl. When my twin's were due, that same little girl (by then a teenager) sent me a collection of books. My children loved them all and we read at least two Berenstain Bears stories each and every night. Well now my friend's little girl is all grown up, married and expecting her own baby... what better baby gift than a collection of Berenstain Bears books? They are a very likable family of bears and each book has a little theme and wholesome message. They are great for 2-4 year olds. Amazon let me ship the box directly to their door for FREE! Thanks Amazon!

My son likes the book. It was on a list on a dentists web site to help him cope with his first dentist visit.
I recommend this book.

The world lost a real gem of a writer when Stan Berenstain passed on November 29. Together, Berenstain and his wife, Jan, and eventually their two sons, created books featuring lovable but flawed characters who tackle just about every real issue that faces families.

Going to the dentist is something that most kids (and adults!) fear. And why not? It's invasive, uncomfortable, and sometimes painful to have someone poking around in your mouth with metal objects. However, it's necessary, and having a healthy attitude about it will promote lifelong oral health. This book is a great place to start if you're looking to help alleviate your child's fear about going to the dentist. It'll help open up a dialogue about your kid's fears and help you to explain why the dentist is so important. Wonderful!

Got this as a transition book to prepare my daughter for her first dentist visit. She is 3. She really enjoyed this book and it eased her fears about the dentist. We must have read this book 3 to 4 times a day for a month. When her dentist visit came around, she brought the book with her to the dentist and couldn't wait to show him. I would definitely recommend this book, especially for little ones going to the dentist for the first time.

This book was purchased as a gift for our two granddaughters, both of whom really enjoy having being read to. The BERENSTAIN BEARS series is among their favorites!

Love the Berenstain books. This is a great story for children who are going to the dentist. It helps with information about the dentist to take the fear away.
