Oh dear! All these animals are poorly! Hamish the Hamster got his whiskers caught up in his wheel. Dipak the Dalmatian's spots came out in stripes. Paul the Python's tail is is a knot and Connie the Crocodile broke her tooth biting a rhino's bottom! But don't worry, with a little help from Nurse Nibbles they'll soon be feeling better. Get Well Friends' books have real play and care values. From croaky crocodiles to sneezy snakes, Nurse Nibbles always makes them feel better with a bit of tender loving care.
