Maddie is an energetic three year-old girl surrounded by brothers & "boy cousins". In this book, Maddie recounts a story of one of her many adventures (in her own, unique & princess way)! After a minor injury, she is taken to a nurse practitioner for medical care. Maddie & her mommy learn many new things during her visit, make some new friends & are soon off for a tasty treat because Maddie was such a good patient! Maddie Goes to the Nurse Practitioner is patterned after the author's niece, a girly-girl in the midst of boys. This mix in a large, tight-knit family makes for some humorous tales & lots of memories for several generations! It is intended to be an entertaining children's book as well as an educational tool for the public who may not clearly understand the practice of nurse practitioners.
