AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
A young tooth fairy named Tate is excited to start her
training with her older sister May. She is surprised that not all the teeth
come from human children. Having almost flown around the whole planet on her
first night, her last visit to a human girl unexpectedly proves the most
challenging of all.
Told in rhyme, the pictures feature
different habitats with baby animals along with the fairies and their glittery
pink trail. The author approaches a familiar topic from an original perspective
by focusing on Tate’s training and on her unusual clients. If you have young
readers that love anything fairy related, this will be a welcomed addition.
