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.

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.
Random listing from 'Books'...
Hare and Pihoihoi are enjoying a beautiful dawn breaking over the meadow when Pihoihoi wonders aloud, "What colour is the sky?"
Hare thinks it is blue, but when they talk to Hedgehog, Snail, Mouse, Frog and Ruru, the other creatures each say the sky is a different colour. Why does this happen?
This book explores the idea that all of us see from different perspectives. Through its beautiful illustrations, it explores the wonder of nature and shows young children the importance of listening and respecting other opinions, even when we see things differently.
