Dexter Procter the 10-year-old Doctor

Synopsis

Dexter Procter the 10-Year-Old Doctor is a funny and fast-paced story about Dexter, a medical genius who becomes a qualified doctor at just ten years old. Although he has the brain of a professional surgeon, he is still treated like a child by adults and struggles to be taken seriously at the hospital. As he deals with ridiculous patients, workplace chaos, and the challenge of fitting in with older colleagues, Dexter learns that being a good doctor is not only about being clever but also about empathy, teamwork, and understanding people. The book is filled with humour, cartoon-style illustrations, and playful medical facts that make it highly entertaining for young readers.
