This is a book that guides kids on how to have good hygiene. It is very important to brush your teeth every morning and every night so you wont get a cavity. If you don't, you will have yucky teeth. ( )

This is a very informative book about teeth. Everything from how to brush, to the inside of a tooth, to history and other countries tooth traditions. It is highly educational with great illustrations but doesn't have a storyline or plot.

I would definitely not read this out loud, especially to small children. There is A LOT of information and small blurps as well as things kids wouldn't find interesting. I, however, learned a lot by reading this. I never knew about what other countries and ancient civilizations felt about teeth. I feel the need to go brush my teeth too!

There are easy extensions to the classroom we can make with this book. We could have a dentist come and talk about what we read about and show us exactly how to brush our teeth. We could give out free toothbrushes, toothpaste and floss. We could also play pin the cavity on the tooth, much like pin the tail on the donkey. This would require prior preparation.
