Josie is the last kid in her class to lose a tooth. Finally one night she feels one start to wiggle (but just a little). At school the next day Josie is determined to get the tooth to fall out but nothing seems to works. Finally while playing a game of chase Josie falls and loses her tooth…and also LOSES HER TOOTH. Josie fears the Tooth Fairy wont leave her a coin if she doesn’t have the tooth to leave under her pillow. Luckily her friend Richard steps up and offers his shark tooth as a replacement. Josie leaves a note for the Tooth Fairy explaining the mishap and in the morning finds a reward for her and Richard. A very sweet story of friendship told with simple lined illustrations and water color that is great for any age.
