The Crazy, Wonderful Things Kids Say: Tales from the Singing Pediatrician

A pediatrician shares accounts of the humorous and heartwarming things his young patients have said to him over the course of his career.

“Hey, doctor, I want to tell you something!”

For fifty-four years, kids have shared with pediatrician Arnold Tanis stories, questions, and bold pronouncements about their childhood worlds. In between treating them, the good doctor wrote down what many of them said. Three generations of patients offer memorable and downright funny observations and opinions about all sorts of things: shots, school, their brothers and sisters, growing up, and even Dr. Tanis himself and whether he can sing as well as he thinks he does. The parents also chime in, both to complain about all their kids put them through and to celebrate how well they eventually turn out.

A tireless, lifelong advocate of child safety, Dr. Tanis’s impact on his patients and their families spans decades. This book is a testament to his career and a memorable glimpse of the warm and sometimes crazy world of a singing pediatrician.
