[J9 · Rating 3 out of 5]

A book my 6 yr old as well as my twin 3 yr olds loved. A solid reading level 3 book, this cute story keeps all ages engaged with the bright colorful pictures and cute story. A great addition to any children's library.

A perfectly pitched, gentle, cozy mood book that my child enjoyed hearing dozens of times or more at bedtime. Especially comforting on a rainy sick day.

you can tell this is a newer addition to the Patrick stories, the author almost takes a different tone telling it. it's not as cute as the other ones but still get the nice message across the children telling them when they're sick to take their medicine and to behave for the doctor. however he made Patrick seemed very spoiled which kind of ruins my childhood dreams of Patrick!
