Doctor Kiss Says Yes

by Teddy Jam, illustrated by Joanne Fitzgerald

tagged: bedtime & dreams, fantasy & magic
Description

Doctor Kiss is quite prepared to say yes when she finds a letter asking her to come to the aid of a young knight who has been injured in battle. She waits until after her usual goodnight kisses and hugs from her parents, and then she takes her medical bag and climbs through her bedroom window into a gilded, magical world from the age of chivalry.

Teddy Jam and Joanne Fitzgerald have created a richly satisfying story about a very imaginative young heroine. Winner of the Governor General's Award (Children's Illustration) when it was first published in 1991, this new edition will delight a whole new generation of young readers.

All royalties from the sales of this book will be donated to the Joanne Fitzgerald Fund at IBBY Canada.
