Curious George Visits the Dentist by Monica Perez - ADVISABLE

Perez, Monica  Curious George Visits the Dentist Illustrated by Mary O’Keefe Young  Houghton Mifflin, 2014.  $13.99  PICTURE BOOK Content, G.  

Curious George eats a fake apple and hurts his tooth.  Man in the Yellow Hat takes George to the dentist.  Although there are lots of kids at the dentist, George is nervous about what is going to happen, so man in the yellow hat lays down in the chair to be his example.  The dentist finds a cavity in the man in the yellow hat and tells George that he just has a lose tooth and everything is okay.  

This book is like all Curious George books where George learns a good lesson, such as the dentist helps us.  He gets into a little trouble, but it turns out okay and the man in the yellow hat helps him.  The illustrations are adorable and keep readers entertained and the story will help little people getting ready for their first visit to the dentist.
