The Dentist and the Toothfairy is a treasure. The ..., December 26, 2014
By Jenna-Leigh Johnson

The Dentist and the Toothfairy is a treasure. The story is hypnotic and timeless, the artwork intricate and breathtaking. Dorota Skrzypek masterfully combines mythic themes and seductive characters in an updated version of the fairy tale genre. This book is the ultimate in escape literature… read it by candlelight!

A GREAT discovery! A true revelation!, December 04, 2006

Much of this story remains burned into my mind even months after I first read it. So, guess what? I read it again! The characters feel like people I've known or could know. The setting seems like someplace dangerous, yet romantic (in a fantastic not syrupy sense of the word). Author Dorota Skrzypek's imaginative storytelling goes deep, far and wide in only 128 pages. I've read novels five times as long, that don't accomplish nearly as much. And certainly, the beautiful accompanying artwork by Jerome Prieur possesses great depth and beauty. It's like the visual engine pushes the narrative steaming forward. If Skrzypek's and Prieur's purpose was to create an epic, adult fairytale, then mission accomplished. Even better, they've walked that fine line between fantasy and realism without being exhaustingly esoteric and coy. Now, one question: Who's going to be smart enough to turn The Dentist and The Toothfairy into a movie?

Great Fairy Tale!, September 01, 2006
By JBArtistic.com (Pittsburgh, PA)

I really enjoyed this book. The artwork was AMAZING, but you would expect that since it was a painting by the artist that inspired the book. The story was a sweet yet dark fairy tale that I would have enjoyed as a child as much as I enjoyed it now as an adult. I believe anyone can relate to the theme of changing as we grow older and how decisions made when we were younger affect our adult lives, even if on a much less dramatic scale. Also I'm a sucker for a love story! I'm impatiently awaiting the next book!
