Written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Lydia Monks (Macmillan Childrens Books)
Go on an adventure into the jungle with the tooth fairy – perfect for any child with a wobbly tooth! From the bestselling picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks.
Ruth Mary the tooth fairy is used to collecting teeth from under the pillows of sleeping children, not animals. But when the Fairy Queen sends her off to the jungle, Ruth Mary doesn’t mind. Everything goes well until she collects the tooth of a crocodile, who wakes up and decides that Ruth Mary looks like a tasty snack… He snaps at her and catches her wing, leaving her unable to fly and forced to go on the run, passing by all the animals she has given treats to. One good turn deserves another and they all try to help her escape.
A lovely ending and a neat tie up to the drama of the snapping crocodile!
Gorgeous illustations from Lydia Monks who has illustrated so many of Julia Donaldson’s books, such as the bestselling What the Ladybird Heard series, which have sold over four million copies worldwide. The perfect story for any child with a wobbly tooth.
