Many people help in our community! Doctors are the people who know how to heal us.
Theo and Emma were playing soccer after school when Theo slipped and fractured his ankle. Then a trip to the emergency room brought the pair together with Dr. Gomez – an ER doctor who specializes in pediatrics. Share the excitement as Dr. Gomez gets Theo feeling good as new and gives the kids a first-hand look at a doctor’s job.
Meet Emma and Theo, two best friends who share a neighborhood – as well as curious minds and adventuresome spirits! Join in the excitement as these fun-loving friends meet a variety of community helpers and learn the ins-and-outs of their very important jobs. Each story is told from the point of view of either Emma or Theo in an engaging narrative that combines fiction and nonfiction text.
