This review is from: A Big Operation (The Busy World of Richard Scarrry) (Paperback)

This book is absolutely darling. With a four year old fascinated by gadgets -- particularly those that let her be a doctor -- this book has allowed our "doctor" to all but open up her own private practice. Between magically transforming hairbands into stethoscopes, spoons into reflex hammers, and chopsticks into tongue depressors, Emily has turned our house into one giant hospital. In addition, trips to the "real" doctor are all but begged for. There is only good in this book, and it has provided entertainment for our whole family -- including our newest four month old addition who is a most willing patient.
