Our Review

This engaging career exploration book introduces young animal lovers to the daily work of a veterinarian through the adventures of Malibu and Brooklyn Barbie. Children will follow along as Dr. Clare demonstrates how she examines various pets, from familiar dogs and cats to more exotic creatures like snakes, providing a gentle introduction to animal care concepts. The inclusion of two sticker sheets adds an interactive element that will keep little hands busy while reinforcing the story's educational content about different animals and their needs.

What sets this book apart is its successful blend of imaginative play with real-world career exposure, making it particularly valuable for preschoolers fascinated by both animals and community helpers. The Barbie characters serve as relatable guides who model curiosity and compassion toward animals, while the veterinary setting provides authentic learning opportunities about pet health. This story will especially resonate with children who dream of working with animals, offering an inspiring glimpse into veterinary medicine that balances entertainment with substantive content about responsible pet care.
