内容简介
Meet Doctor Dog, he’s the Gumboyle family’s favourite pet and their very own trusty physician. When Doctor Dog jets off to a medical conference in Brazil the Guimboyles decide they can’t survive without him and so he returns to rescue them from all sorts of ailments: itchy nits, tickly tonsils and worms to name but a few. . .

Kindergarten-Grade 2-The Gumboyles’ pet beagle, Dr. Dog, teaches his
family that smoking hurts their lungs, that germs can attack tonsils,
and that nits live in hair. He then proceeds to explain that Baby
Gumboyle caught worms by not washing his hands after using the toilet.
He issues the admonition, “Never scratch your bum and suck your thumb!”)
The coup de grace, however, is Granddad’s gastrointestinal problem from
eating too many baked beans and drinking too much beer; “…he farted
so hard he blew the roof right off the house!” Children will no doubt
learn a few hygiene lessons here, and find this story funny. Despite the
silliness of the presentation, the information is basically accurate
and important. The illustrations are typical Cole-full of humorous
detail, including cartoon drawings of the “tubes” inside the human body.
On-target health lessons delivered with a decidedly different slant.
