Robert Munsch - Andrew's Loose Tooth

One loose tooth. A pair of pliers, a dentist's car, and the Tooth Fairy on a motorcycle. Still stuck.

In Andrew's Loose Tooth, Andrew's tooth is killing him — but it absolutely refuses to come out. His dad tries pliers. The dentist tries his car. The Tooth Fairy roars in on her motorcycle and gives it everything she's got. Nothing works. It takes Andrew's friend Louis — and a very strategic pinch of pepper — to finally send that tooth flying across town.

Why You'll Love It

Classic Munsch chaos from start to finish. The escalating attempts to yank out one stubborn tooth are perfectly absurd, and kids who've ever had a wiggly tooth will feel every wince and giggle right along with Andrew. It's loud, it's silly, and it ends with the most satisfying sneeze in children's literature.
