First tooth loss

My wobbly tooth must not ever never fall out

by Lauren Child

Lola is very concerned that she has a wobbly tooth and she does not want it to come out.  Her brother Charlie and his friend, Marv, tell some horror stories as to how they lost their baby teeth.  But it is not until her friend Lotta reveals that she received money from the tooth fairy for her tooth, that Lola becomes keen to rid herself of the wobbly tooth.  As she's taking a bite from an apple, her tooth falls out and she ponders what she might spend the tooth fairy money on.  As she gets ready for bed, Lola discovers her tooth has gone missing and she and Charlie go on a wild tooth hunt around the house to no avail.  How will Charlie and Lola  convince the tooth fairy that Lola really has lost her tooth?  A charming tale to share with a child who is about to lose their first tooth.
