 TIGHT STORY, December 25, 2011

If a well meaning adult has not already created unfounded fears the story and artwork may be appreciated as unique and cute. It made sense that the parents understood the behavior and how to move past it. Good plot Worthwhile read.

 Kids will relate, but . . ., June 03, 2004

Loose Tooth is a cute little story about twin bats who do everything together. Fang loses a tooth and Flapper finds himself feeling jealous that he isn't having the same experience.
So when Fang leaves his tooth on a ledge for the Tooth Fairy, Flapper sneaks out of bed to steal his brother's tooth, and wanderes around the house to hide it. This is rewarded in the end of the story with a quarter because his dad says they shouldn't have ignored Flapper.
I think this is a wrong message to our children: Stealing, sneaking around, and disobeying household rules will be rewarded (if it's done because there is a lesson for us parents to learn) ... the end justifies the means. There was a beautiful opportunity to model to kids how to communicate with their family, but instead the "child" in the book was rewarded for bad behavior. I'm not a fan.

There are twin bats whose names are Fangs and Flapper. These twins do everything together, including reading, playing sports, and flying into the night. One day during reading class Fangs discovered he had a loose tooth. He showed it off to all his friends and classmates. Flipper wished he had a loose tooth too. Fangs just couldn't wait for his tooth to fall out. That night at dinner Fangs bit down on a piece of bread and out fell his tooth. Fangs anticipated the tooth fairy's visit. Flapper was so jealous because he didn't have a loose tooth. Have you ever been so jealous that you would do anything to make the other person miserable? Well thats how Fang felt and he did something terrible to Fangs. If you've ever felt this way I'm sure you can relate to this book. I would recommend this book because I know everyone has had an experience like this at some point or another so its easy to understand. ~ Stephanie Hartwig
