A first grade girl is concerned because she is the only child in her class who has not lost a tooth. Finally one morning at breakfast the tooth falls out as she takes a bite of bread. She is so proud and everyone is so happy and proud for her as she shows everyone the tooth and the space in her mouth. She does briefly lose the tooth but finds it in time to put it under her pillow for the tooth fairy.

I found this story to be heartwarming because loosing the first tooth is such a deal. This story is from a level 1 reader which I think is great because children ready to lose their first tooth should be able to read it themselves.

This is a wonderful story to help in addressing a child's fear of losing the first tooth. It also illustrates the emotions the little girl goes through during the process. ( )
