Reviews
"There's no mistaking the cheerful look of the digital artwork. This picture book offers an upbeat, imaginative, and gently amusing take on tooth fairy lore."--Booklist
"Toothy's adventure to his new home and Friedland's punny dental humor ensures a giggly storytime while providing low-key reassurance to kiddos anxious about finding that first wiggly incisor. Bright, full-bleed illustrations make judicious use of white space to heighten the drama at key moments (such as Toothy flailing his legs helplessly while buried face-first in an apple), and they bring comedic energy to a multicultural supporting cast of tooth fairies, kids, and expressive cartoon chompers."--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
