 Paper, water and flour, August 04, 2005
By Ruth Bass

You can make a fake tooth with paper, water and flour. Children think that's a pretty smart idea until Russell Hoban's whimsical tooth fairies propose making a fake child out the same material. For children whose teeth are falling out regularly, this is a superb and very funny adventure story. It's good for grandparents, too. And the drawings are wonderful, especially when the toy car gets involved in a car chase. Every household with toothless children should have this book.

I hadn't thought about this book for over 30 years, but now that I have a six year old daughter, it all came back to me. This is a wonderful story about Jack and his sister, Daisy, who try to fool the tooth fairy when Jack looses his loose tooth. They make a fake one out of flour and water and put it under his pillow. When the tooth fairy comes to visit that night, the adventure really begins! They shrink down to "fairy size" and have to deal with the ethical issues presented with their situation. Every kid should read this over and over again.
