Renowned peanutrician Dr. Peanut ventures out into a peanut-eating world and nearly gets eaten, first by a squirrel and then by two hungry kids. Can he talk his way out of their clutches? The story lets kids know that they can speak up for themselves. Medical centers use this book to reassure children that doctors are friendly. The story also reminds little people to speak up! A charming story of friendship. Dr. Peanut encounters giants (human children) who may turn him into a snack, but he is delightfully surprised…. Cute drawings. - Reviewer’s Choice, Children’s Bookwatch, Midwest Book Review Delightfully nonsensical, this tale will suit every child and adult who appreciates the absurd. Much of the charm of the book is the advice he gives to his young friends, boy and girl, who are wise enough to question some of his conclusions. What civilized conversations they have! The illustrations admirably capture the spirit. - Small Press Review Plain pea-nutty fun. - Old Schoolhouse Magazine
