Illustrated by
Israel Sanchez.
No longer able to collect dino teeth, the Dinosaur Tooth Fairy desperately wants a little girl's tooth. The Human Tooth Fairy gets to the pillow first, so Dino TF proposes a swap--prehistoric for human incisor--and makes a friend in the deal. The text is dynamic, and lively gouache illustrations keep the story engaging even as the plot peters out.
