Scholastic, 1987, 1987. Paperback. Very Good. Illus By Author. Squarish octavo, softcover, VG in yellow pictorial wraps. Unpaginated, about 30 pp. Doctor De Soto is a well-respected mouse-dentist who runs a successful practice with his wife (and able assistant) Mrs. De Soto.

Synopsis
Doctor De Soto is a 1982 book by William Steig that won a Newbery Honor. At a mere 32 pages, it is one of the shortest books to receive the award. The plot deals with the kind Dr. De Soto, a mouse-dentist that has to help a fox with a toothache without being eaten.
