Description
Little Hippo waits eagerly for the arrival of the Tooth Fairy and ends up making a final tooth-to-coin exchange for her.
Quick Summary
For kids who've ever felt ripped off when the Tooth Fairy leaves a tiny coin, this story's perfect. Little Hippo decides to investigate why the exchange feels so unfair, hatching a plan to get a better deal while still keeping the magic alive. The humor is light and silly, and the short chapters make it easy for early readers to power through on their own. Parents will appreciate that the book gently tackles the trust and excitement of the tooth-fairy tradition without being preachy, and the bright, friendly illustrations keep everything feeling fun rather than scary. If your child enjoys laugh-out-loud stories about everyday gripes, they'll probably ask to read it again, and it pairs nicely with other funny early readers like *The Day the Crayons Quit*.
