Overview

"""So much wonderful whimsy here, it’s hard to know what to praise first."" — Booklist (starred review) Two young tooth fairies make their first lost-tooth collection in Bob Graham’s warm, whimsical tale. Charm abounds in the visual details: the tiny fairy-sized cell phones the girls carry; the pony-tailed, winged dad in baggy jeans; the snug fairy house with teeth dangling like wind chimes. Once again, Bob Graham has crafted a tale of heartwarming adventure, magical yet very real."

Young audiences will linger over the detailed illustrations that bring to life Graham's gentle tale.--The Horn Book (starred review) Theres so much wonderful whimsy here, its hard to know what to praise first. As always, a major treat is Graham's detail-filled artwork, here punctuated by a fairy toilet made from an egg cup and ceiling decorations of hanging teeth. But Graham also slyly covers some interesting issues as well: the cocoon in which parents like to keep their kiddies, alternative families, and the pride and accomplishment children feel with a job well done. Fresh and lots of fun.--Booklist (starred review) So very charming, touching and heartwarming.--Kirkus Reviews (starred review) This is sure to be a favorite with the wiggly-tooth set.--Bulletin of the Center of Children's Books (starred review) Whimsical illustrations and bright colors. Bob Graham uses his talents as an authorand illustrator to give us a peek into an almost believable, tiny world of tooth fairies where dad sports a ponytail, mom has a tattoo, and children carry cell phones--Library Media Connection Humorous writing and ink and watercolor paintings are first rate. The spunky heroines exude courage and spirit.--Plain Dealer Graham fills his pastel cartoonlike drawings with clever details such as a coffee cup for a bathtub and postage stamps for wall decorations. The story's marvelous magic glides over the few lapses in logic It's a loving tale of growing up--Sacramento Bee
