Amazon.co.uk Review
The Gumboyle family have a family pet--a dog--who just happens to be a doctor. How convenient--a dog who is both a pet and a personal physician, able to dish out advice and remedies for any complaint! Written and illustrated by the award- winning Babette Cole, this is an extremely funny book. Suitable for reading to three-year-olds and older; suitable for six-year-olds and above to read to themselves. --Susan Naylor
"Charming, educative (in a rather naughty way) and funny...Take daily, repeatedly!" The Observer
"Sound advice here, along with some good rude fun." The Guardian --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Meet Doctor Dog, he's the Gumboyle family's favourite pet and their very own trusty physician. When Doctor Dog jets off to a medical conference in Brazil the Guimboyles decide they can't survive without him and so he returns to rescue them from all sorts of ailments: itchy nits, tickly tonsils and worms to name but a few. . .

My son is now 8, but we have had this book for a while. He loves it, it is funny, educational and entertaining all in one go. We have bought other books from the same author which are good but this is the best. FANTASTIC.

A hugely fun book for the kids - and one that the adults should enjoy too. Like all great books for kids, it works on many levels of humour - for young kids through to parents. I'm just having to buy another copy because my 4-year-old gave her copy to her best friend - and now wants it back !
