FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Brill, Marlene Targ Krenina, Katya, Illustrator

Tooth Tales from Around the World

(4) K-3 Brill offers a quick, interesting survey of folklore--including the tooth mouse and the tooth fairy--about lost teeth from ancient times to the present day. The gouache illustrations feature rich colors and some pleasing compositions, but the occasional odd exaggeration is distracting, and the writing could be smoother. Source note included.
