Little Chipmunk is proud of his two front teeth, but one day he notices a tooth is very loose. Concerned that something is wrong, he avoids eating any foods that might make his problem worse. The dentist reassures him that this is perfectly normal, and soon he’ll have two grown-up teeth where his baby teeth used to be.
Losing a first tooth can be a bit scary for children who don’t realize what’s happening. But as Little Chipmunk experiences this himself, he guides kids through the process they will soon face. Lisa McCue’s darling animal illustrations add to the charm of this cute story.
