About This Book
Reach for this book when your child first notices a tooth wiggling or feels a mix of excitement and trepidation about the physical changes of growing up. It is a gentle, grounding resource for children navigating the transition from 'little' to 'big' kids, focusing on the sensory experience and the decision-making process that follows a milestone. Little Rabbit's journey captures the quiet, everyday moments of childhood with a focus on family support. The story follows Little Rabbit as she navigates the practicalities of a loose tooth: how it feels to eat, the moment it actually comes out, and the big decision of what to do with it. Unlike many stories that jump straight to the Tooth Fairy, this book validates a child's agency and curiosity. It is perfectly suited for preschoolers and early elementary students, providing a comforting framework for an experience that can otherwise feel slightly overwhelming or strange.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book approaches the physical change of losing a body part in a secular, realistic way. While the Tooth Fairy is a central theme, the focus remains on the child's autonomy and the natural progression of growth. There is no mention of pain or blood, keeping the tone light and safe.
