The De Sotos are friendly and professional toward all their patients, from chipmunks to donkeys to cows, the exception being "cats and other dangerous animals," as stated clearly on the sign outside the office. But the De Sotos are tender-hearted rodents, so when a miserable fox shows up begging for treatment, they agree to have a look (perhaps against their better judgment). As it turns out, this fox, with "a rotten bicuspid and unusually bad breath," manages to behave himself while tiny Doctor De Soto is standing mid-molar inside his gaping jaws. When the wily fox returns the next day to get his replacement gold tooth, however, he has mouse-flavored snacks on his mind. Luckily, Doctor De Soto and his wife have anticipated such despicable canine intentions, and find a way to outfox the ungrateful fox. William Steig, award-winning creator of Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, once again offers young readers a clever, amusing tale of interspecies mingling. As usual, Steig's tone is matter-of-fact, and his enchanting illustrations of the responsible mouse couple and their foxy adversary are alive with expression and emotion. Kids will appreciate the De Sotos' wit, and will be delighted to read more about this diminutive couple's adventures in Doctor De Soto Goes to Africa. (Ages 4 to 8) Book Description: The delightful dentist Doctor de Soto is back at work handling all his patiens with care until he meets a new client-the wily fox. A delightful and engaging story that will charm all readers. Winner of the Newbery Honors Book Award. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A book about trusting your enemies but not being foolishAn interesting kids book about serving those in need but not being foolish with their devious desires and safeguarding yourself. Rating:  - I loved this book!My Name is Deyaneira and I am 8 years old. My English teacher read this book to us in class and I thought this book was funny . My favorite part was when Dr. De Soto climbed in the fox's mouth. I recommend this book for everybody. I also like this book by Mo Willems: Edwina the Dinosaur Who Didn't Know She Was Extinct. I hope you will love this book. Rating: - Doctor De SotoJust loved this book .Great book for kids of all ages. I even enjoyed this as a adult. Great ending . Rating: - Dr. Desoto ReviewThis is a wonderful book! I purchased this for my 4 year old son and have given several copies as gifts to his friends. The story appeals to boys and girls. The author of this book wrote the original Shrek story as well as another book titled Boris and Amos. I highly recommend this book! Rating:  - Doctor DeSoto bookYou can call me StoryMaker. "Doctor DeSoto" is not my favorite book, and I especially don't like the end. I like how they are animal people, but are the size they are supposed to be. What I mean is, they are animals that talk, walk on 2 legs, and live in their own house, but unlike most people animals, they are the size they are in real life. It would probably be a book a young child would adore (probably most children ages 3-5) but I don't fall into the "Dr. DeSoto lovers" category or the "children ... Read More
