Emma Niden wrote notes to the tooth fairy over a period of time and her mom kept copies of them.
The notes are funny, touching and provide a window into the mind of a child.
"I pulled my first tooth out tonight. Please bring me a dragon."
This is a conversation book. One that will spark conversation between those who read it. That's how it found its way to my house. Wonderful for adults as well as children.
Message:
[Parents] This is the thought process that goes on in your child's head.
[Kids] See, other people want dragons too.
