Open Wide #23 (Katie Kazoo, Switcheroo),   ISBN:9780448444390

Customer Rating: 

The "Katie Kazoo" series is about an elementary age girl who received a granting of her wish to be someone else. In each book in this series she experiences (temporarily) a change into someone else, and during the period of change she usually creates a conflict that she has to work to resolve after she turns into Katie again. My daughters (similar in age to Katie) love these books and usually consume them in a single day (or a single sitting). The conflict is low-grade and typically funny or light-hearted.

"Open Wide" is about Katie turning into a dentist right before a check up for a friend. It's not a pretty visit, but the restored Katie finds a way to rebuild the patient's confidence and the dentist's reputation. One of our favorites in the series.

Customer Rating: 

This is another delightful book in the Katie Kazoo series. Once again, Katie is changed into someone else through the magical wind. This time, she becomes a dentist to help a younger child overcome his fear of the dentist. Along the way, she learns that words, once spoken, can't be taken back.

Written in a easy to read style and coupled with the illustrations, this book will capture a child's attention. Join Katie and her friends on another enjoyable adventure!
