Have you ever wanted to meet the Tooth Fairy?
Did you ever wonder what becomes of baby teeth?
Tom and Holly did - especially when Tom lost a tooth. But then, that night, the Tooth Fairy came to visit. She took the children to Cloudland where, in a beautiful garden amongst the clouds, she showed them why baby teeth are so special.
Here, in this wondrous and beautifully illustrated fairytale, the magic and secrets of the Tooth Fairy are revealed at last.
Written and illustrated by Shirley Barber.
Also available in hardcover format.

i have read many bedtime stories to my 3 year old and she loves them all but her favourite is this one. she demands it every night but of course that would be too much. i think it is because she only gets this read to her no more than once a week that makes it so special for her. i plan to buy the hardcover version for durability and the cool little tooth-pouch that comes with it. she will be losing teeth soon enough so i think it a good investment.

This is a very nice story about a magical part of childhood, the tooth fairy, and what she does actually use those baby teeth for.
The illustrations are very lovely, and quite detailed too. Both my two year old and eight year old enjoyed this story, and the illustrations, and wanted it again straight away. They especially liked counting the tiny, cute pixie gardeners that were on every page.

Kids will reach that stage, where every second sentence starts with "Why..."
It's a wonderful stage, where we try and cover topics requiring adult-level experience, in terms understandable to a 2-5 year-old.
Well, here's a book that will at least help you cope with the toddler-age trauma of losing their baby-teeth.
A wonderful story, complimented with amazing illustrations... a true treat.
The softcover edition is a little easier to use when perched precariously on the edge of a youngun's bed, so I would rate this a smidge higher up the 'food chain' in the Kids Books genre.
Overall, as with the Hardcover Edition, this book is another wonderful addition to any children's bookshelf.

Do not lose faith. Remember the words of the story,
remember the words of the spell...
Quinn, Sebastian, Elanor and Tom have defeated the black witch Githa and found the last crucial piece of the prophecy - the sea serpent's scale.
Back now at Wolfhaven, they search desperately through the castle crypts for the sleeping heroes, who they hope will save them all ... before the dark moon rises and they lose everything.
