Crocodile has a toothache, but he's afraid of the dentist. The dentist wants to help, but he's afraid of Crocodile. Never fear! Bestselling author-illustrator Taro Gomi cleverly and humorously presents both sides of the story in this hilarious picture book, as the crocodile and the dentist learn to be brave and face their fears-of tooth extractions and each other!

Reviews for The Crocodile and the Dentist

A hilarious, conversational narrative presents a simple idea, which is used to effectively explore fear and empathy. Deceptively basic text and witty, expressive illustrations will delight youngsters, but could also convey a subtle message about confronting anxiety and seeing things from someone else's point of view. -- BookTrust
