April and Esme: Tooth Fairies by Bob Graham


Graham, Bob.  April and Esme: Tooth Fairies.  Candlewick Press, 2010. 40 pages. Content: G. PICTURE BOOK.  Sister tooth fairies go on their first adventure to pick up a boy’s tooth.  After leaving their parents, they fly through wind and dark to find Daniel’s house.  While there they avoid the dog and have to dive into a cup of water to retrieve the tooth.  They exchange the tooth for a coin and fly the tooth home to their proud parents.  The storyline is hard to follow because it is broken up in weird places on the page.  The illustrations of the characters are not that great either.  Optional for K-3. Reviewer:  C. Peterson, Middle School Teacher.
