Doctor Squash: the Doll Doctor

This Little Golden Book tells the story of Doctor Squash, a dedicated physician who specializes in treating various toy patients. Throughout the narrative, he uses imagination and kindness to "cure" ailments like a wooden soldier's squeaky joints, a fireman's broken leg, and a rag doll’s inability to whistle. The doctor employs both medical tools and whimsical remedies, such as potato peels and plum oil, to ensure his plaything companions feel cared for. When the physician eventually falls ill himself, the toys reciprocate his devotion by using his own medical supplies to nurse him back to health. Ultimately, the book highlights a mutual bond of care between the doctor and his community of dolls through gentle empathy.
