Doctor Fairytale by

Catherine Jacob

Summary

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

One character’s head is throbbing after her long, flowing locks were used as a ladder. Another has splinters in her bottom after sitting on a certain bear’s too-small chair. Then there’s the girl with blistered toes after hobbling home from the ball in just one shoe! Luckily, in this magical make-believe land, Doctor Fairy Tale and her dog are on the case, traveling far and wide to help injured and ailing fairy-tale friends. No matter what sort of bump or bruise—and no matter how mischievous the patient!—this kind doctor is happy to lend a hand, inspiring little readers to do the same. 

“To a man born without conscience, a soul-stricken man must seem ridiculous. To a criminal, honesty is foolish. You must not forget that a monster is only a variation, and that to a monster the norm is monstrous.”

John Steinbeck

“I knew when I had looked for a long time that I had hardly begun to see.”

Nan Shepard

“What a mistake, above all, it had been to believe that I couldn’t live without him, when for a long time I had not been at all certain that I was alive with him.”

Elena Ferrante

“Reality exists in the human mind, and nowhere else.”

George Orwell

“How short a time a person had to be alive, he thought. How long to be dead.”

Kate Grenville
