Open Wide! by Jen Green
One of a series for young children that explores what it is like to go through a number of significant new experiences, this sensitive and entertaining book thoughtfully helps children to understand what happens when they visit the dentist and the feelings they might have about it. It also looks at what a filling is and how to look after your teeth. Written from a child's point of view, it is both informative and reassuring. The humourous illustrations not only enable the reader to relate the book to their everyday life but also stimulate discussion about the experience. Notes for parents, carers and teachers help adults use the book most effectively with their children and include ideas for using it in literacy classes. Mike Gordon is a highly successful illustrator whose work for Wayland has established a respected information book brand.
