Finmore Meets Doctor Puffer and Nurse Octi

Finmore Fish tries desperately to hide that he is not feeling well from both his mother and his teacher. When his fever makes the water steam in his Ocean Flora Village classroom and his sneezing (feezing) can no longer be ignored, he dreads the imminent trip to the local pediatrician (pediafishian). He is convinced that Dr. Puffer will angrily blow up and that Nurse Octi will hold him down for a shot with all eight tentacles. Why? Word has circulated among his popular classmates, including pretty Farah Fish, about Dr. Puffer and Nurse Octi. Surely his friends can be trusted! Imagine Finmore's surprise when his local pediafishian and his nurse are both helpful and pleasant. At a time when young children are faced with multiple misrepresentations and uncertainties about their world, Finmore's story encourages young children to seek the truth in all they do. At the back of the beautifully illustrated book are coloring pages that will teach some basic roles of several health care professionals that children may someday encounter. These are followed by a few fun Ocean Flora activity pages!
