Traditional stories and beliefs about baby teeth date back centuries and have many variations, of which the legend of the Tooth Fairy is just one.

Tina the First Tooth Fairy

A shortage of fairy dust poses an existential threat to the fairies, for whom it provides the sparkle and speed they need to outwit gremlins and be godmothers. Tiny Tina sets off on a mission to find a sustainable source of fairy dust and discovers it in the most unlikely of places.

“What an absolutely wonderful take on the tooth fairy; yet another master class by Bruce Scharschmidt. The story is beautiful, the illustrations are fun and it is just an overall joy to read.”

“A fairy without her fairy dust magic
would be a story potentially tragic.
Herein young Tina finds a sustainable source; a rhyming story told with joy, wit and force.”

“I can’t wait to read this book to my grand-nieces. It marks an important milestone in a child’s life and is a natural for reading and rereading, definitely aloud, to make the most of its musical cadence and rhyming.”

“Magical! Jack, Tina and the entire supporting cast are the perfect blend of fanciful, relatable, and charming. What a fun way to pique kids’ imagination as they experience, or approach the great milestone of losing a tooth!”
