Trevor's Wiggly-Wobbly Tooth

The hilarious, heartwarming story of an anxious boy and a very loose tooth TREVOR, THE LAST in his class to be a member of the Missing Tooth Club, finally has a wiggly tooth. Each day he proudly shows his friends how it wiggles more and more. But each friend in turn cautions him about the scary ways a loose tooth can be pulled out--from fingers to string to pliers. Trevor wants his tooth to come out, but he doesn't want someone to yank it out. When Grandma Sally shows his class how to make old-fashioned taffy, Trevor learns there are also fun ways to pull a tooth! With a delightful twist at the end that hints at the cyclical nature of life, Lester Laminack's humorous story captures the anxious joy that each child experiences with his or her first loose tooth. Kathi McCord's whimsical illustrations bring Trevor and his classmates to life and gently encourage young readers to experience the delight and excitement in reaching this childhood milestone.
