Selected for the 2025 Bologna Ragazzi Award's Amazing Bookshelf

Join Doctor Fairytale and her sidekick Nurse Pup as they visit poorly fairytale patients who need their help!

My name is Doctor Fairytale, I'm always super busy. My list of patients is so long, it sometimes makes me dizzy!

In a magical fairytale land, Doctor Fairytale and her dog, Nurse Pup, travel far and wide to help injured or poorly people! Rapunzel's head is hurting from her mother climbing her long locks, Goldilocks has splinters in her bottom from the Bears' broken chairs, and Cinderella has blistered toes from walking home without a shoe!

But no matter the bump or bruise – and no matter how mischievous the patient! – kind and patient Doctor Fairytale is ready with her doctor's bag, happy to lend a hand.
