“Wells visualizes the introductory visit-to-the-doctor reassurance with her characteristic spirited charm.” — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review)

Comforting and friendly, Dr. Duck — whom readers first met in Here Comes Mother Goose — takes a star turn in A Visit to Dr. Duck. Rosemary Wells’s inimitable artwork will delight small children and reassure even the most reluctant young patient.
