What is Dentist Day about?

Emma feels nervous about visiting the dentist. She wonders whether she might have a cavity and worries that she has not flossed well enough. At the dental clinic, the hygienist and dentist take time to communicate with Emma, who is deaf and uses sign language. Their kindness helps her feel safe as she learns what will happen during her appointment. With an ASL fingerspelling chart and sign language guide included, this gentle early reader shows how understanding and support can make a difference.
