Maxine's Critters Get the Vaccine Jitters: A Cheerful and Encouraging Story to Soothe Kids' Covid Vaccine Fears

A shot can be a little frightening--but it's quick, as quick as lightning!

When Maxine tells her pets, "Let's get to the vet!"
Scott does not want a shot.
Jervis is nervous, Franky is cranky, Biffy is iffy, and Cary is wary.
Can Maxine help her critters get over their jitters . . . ?

Perfect for any child afraid of shots or needles, this rhyming book in free meter is a "must-read-aloud"! Spunky Maxine takes charge of her vaccine fears with a playful game of pretend: Her adorable stuffed animals are the patients, and Dad steps in as the "vet."

Just in time for the kids' covid vaccine--and relevant to any pediatric shot--Maxine's Critters Get the Vaccine Jitters will delight children ages 5 and under who face this understandable fear. No need to be grouchy about this little ouchy!
