Doctor Nice sensitively cares for a wide range of animal patients, dispensing cautionary advice while he bandages wounds and checks symptoms. It's Mommy's turn at story's end, revealing the doc as a child and the patients as stuffed animals. Crosshatched watercolor and ink illustrations of the assorted critters' injurious antics accompany this warmhearted portrait of a diligent young healthcare expert at work.
