        For children, seeing a doctor is always a fearful thing. The author portrays an imaginary "Monster Western Clinic" from the perspective of children, depicting the fear of the unknown that children experience before they see a doctor. The imagined scenario is juxtaposed with an actual experience of seeing a doctor to help alleviate children's fears and soothe their anxiety about seeing a doctor. This picture book is suitable for children who are afraid to see a doctor, refuse to see a doctor, do not like to see a doctor, or have not seen a doctor before.
