(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anna Chernyshova. Anna, nursing a loose tooth, becomes convinced that her baby sister is training to be a tooth fairy: her (tired) mom says that Sophie was "up all night"; her father asks Sophie, "Did you get any teeth yet?"; etc. The misunderstanding plays like the adult contrivance it is, but there's enough visual pizzazz in the digital illustrations to hook the Fancy Nancy crowd.
