This is a cool verse book about a little boy whose tooth is ready to come out. He’s eager to meet the tooth fairy and can’t wait for his tooth to break loose. When it finally does fall out, his anticipation is rewarded as he gets to see the fairy.
Excerpt
I wiggled it and waggled it for such a long while.
While my baby brother flashed me his funny toothless smile.
Mom handed me an apple.
She said, “Here, take a bite.”
“No! ‘Cause if I swallow it,
Guess who won’t come tonight.”
