Dr. Tootsie is a cute story about a young girl who grows up on a
family farm, hangs out with her Gramp, and learns about life in some
unusual ways, such as the time she picked up a copperhead snake and
didn't get bit!
Dr. Tootsie is a great story about how life can prepare each of us
for becoming anything we want to be, including following in the
footsteps of our parents. On the farm, Tootsie learned many things
about farm life, including the importance of life and hard work, but
it was her dad's profession that intrigued her the most—thus began
her lifelong study of medicine.
I highly recommend Dr. Tootsie to preteens. It's a great book that
teaches children to look outside themselves and towards helping
others—whether it be animal, nature, or human.
