FOOLING THE TOOTH FAIRY
Little
Marty hatches a plot to trick the Tooth Fairy with a
paper tooth. But when the clever fairy finds out what
he’s done, watch out! He’s about to learn
that she has a strong sense of justice … and a
sense of humor even stronger!
The warm childhood
memories of Martin Nelson Burton find a perfect home
in Clint Hansen’s paper sculpture wonderland.
The sequence of wordless pages in the book - where the
Tooth Fairy flies to the boy's house, reacts passionately
to finding out that the boy has tried to trick her with
a paper tooth, then devises her own strategy to "get
even" - make for a wonderful prediction exercise
for young readers.
A storytelling treat, this exquisite picture
book offers a rare and delightful glimpse into the sometimes
feisty temperament of our most-loved fairy. |
