If you have a three-year-old who tense up the moment they see a waiting room fish tank, Visit to the Doctor does solid work. Derek Shun's narrative keeps the stakes grounded while adding just enough playful imaginative scaffolding—Ollie the panda guiding an alien friend through human medical routines—to keep it from reading like a sterile pamphlet.

Benson Shum's artwork neutralizes the clinical edge of medical gear, making stethoscopes and tongue depressors look like ordinary adventure props. It won't become a prized bedtime favorite forever, but as a practical tool to read two days before a annual checkup or vaccine appointment, it hits its target squarely.
