Dentist - Illustrated Jess Stockham

To the Dentist We Go!

Dentist, part of the First Time series illustrated by Jess Stockham and published by Child's Play, gently prepares young children for their first dental visit. With 24 pages of warm, child-centered illustrations and reassuring dialogue, this board book addresses common worries: What will happen?, Will it hurt?, Why do we go?
Through simple and familiar language, this book helps toddlers and preschoolers understand what to expect at the dentist, making the unknown feel a little less scary. It’s the perfect companion for opening up conversations about real-life situations and easing anxieties before they arise.

Why families and educators love the First Time series:

• Introduces new experiences with warmth and clarity
• Encourages emotional literacy and open conversation
• Supports early childhood development and resilience
• Ideal for ages 3–5
