    A Timeless Story of Altruism
  

*by D***I on Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2012*

My mother bought this book for me when it was first published in 1950.  I was six years old at the time, and I read it to my little sister, who was three.  We both loved it, and my sister, Laura, demanded I read it over and over again, which I happily did.  Found a use for those Band-Aids, too.  What I didn't know at the time was that "Doctor" Dan, the protagonist of this story, had a little sister named Carly who grew up to be a rock star.  (The book was dedicated to Peter Simon, Carly's little brother and Little Golden Books at the time were a subsidiary of Simon & Schuster so it's a pretty safe bet that the "Carly" wasn't Carly Fiorina.  Nor Carly Rae Jepsen.  Moreover, the author, Helen Gaspard, was the Simon kids' nanny.)Since then, this Dan, no doubt the result of having owned "Dr. Dan" as a child, has bought every Carly Simon record ever made, along with multiple copies of this terrific book, which have been given to a multitude of children, relatives and otherwise.  I have the older kids read the story to the little ones.  To a child, the kids are enraptured by the story and don't find it dated.  Moreover, it gets `em away from Grand Theft Auto and Mafia II for awhile, a good thing.Some reviewers have noted the "sexism" which pervades the book, which was written by a woman.  Boys play Cowboys and Indians (with toy guns, not real ones).  Girls play with dolls.  Mom's a stay-at-home mom, and Dad cuts the grass, with a manual push mower.  (I remember cutting the grass with one of them back in the `50's.)  To those who have a problem with this, or with little Carly's bloomers, get a life!  The book is a product of its times, and its times weren't so bad.The essence of this story, an altruistic little boy with a loving family, is timeless, and will survive the inanities of political correctness.  I hope the idea of a kid coming to the aid of his little sister, his dog, and his Dad will survive, too.

    timeless story
  

*by L***Z on Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2011*

Other reviewers have provided the storyline, so I won't repeat it here.  I will address some reviewers' concerns and add my own opinion of the story.Some erronously think the sister's panties showing in the illustrations.  They are not, they are bloomers which girls used to wear so that their panties *didn't* show. Bloomers were worn under dresses over underwear so that little girls could run and play *not* show their painties. I have often wished I could find them now for my little girls who love wearing dresses (even though I never wear them). Bloomers are basically pretty shorts.I have read the book so many times I have it memorized and I can't recall any ominous injuries (another concern I saw posted). A boy got a tiny cut on a metal toy, and a father got a cut on a manual lawnmower blade. Nothing ominous in either case. Additionally, the sister, dog and doll all had pretend injuries, or old scraps that they wanted band-aids on, just like children of today.Lastly, I found nothing sexist about this book. The mother was wearing a dress, but women did back then. Women do today, too. The mother helped her child feel better, which to my knowledge, mother's of today still do. The father, on his day off of work, mowed the lawn. I believe that both men women mow lawns today. The book does not say that only father could or that the mother was doing 'woman work' or anything of the sort. Many fathers of today mow lawns on the weekend. Lastly, the brother and sister were playing together, not sexist either!For the record, I grew up in the 80's and I am a mother. There may have been sexist attitudes in the 50's, but to find them in the book, you have to put things into it that aren't there, and children do not do that. I think it is a very enjoyable book for parents and children alike.  I know my children (of both genders) love this book.
