Blue Eases Checkup Fears, 2008-02-21
Those that have seen the TV episode should have a pretty good idea what this is about. Blue is going for a doctor's appointment, a checkup with Dr. Maya, but she's a bit nervous. She's not really sure what will happen during her visit. We do some roleplay and Blue also gets to bring along Polka Dots to help her feel better. And Blue learns that going for a checkup isn't so bad. She gets her reflexes checked, is weighed (20 pounds), and has her blood pressure tested. And, yes, she gets a shot, which doesn't really hurt all that much. Finally, she gets some stickers.

This book is particularly notable because it's the first one in the numbered series in which they started the practice of Blue talking out loud. "I wonder what will happen during my visit... What will Dr. Maya do?" Oh yeah, this story, like the TV episode, features the male Nurse Kenny and the female Dr. Maya, doing some stereotype-shattering work. This book is sure to be great for any kid that has some fear of going to the doctor.

No More Fear of the Doctor, 2005-10-28
Our son was terrified of the doctor's office-total melt down everytime. He loved Blue's Clues, so when we saw this book, we bought it and started reading it to him for several days before his next visit. Like Blue and Joe, he took a friend. And he was fine! He knew exactly what the doctor was going to do. He now loves going to the doctor! We highly recommend it!
