There's No Such Thing as the Tooth Fairy! - by Harriet Hall MD (Paperback)

About the Book

Henry has lost a tooth and he can't wait to see what the Tooth Fairy will bring him.
Harriet, his older wiser sister, knows better, but can she convince her little brother?

Book Synopsis

In the tradition of other classic cautionary tales such as 'The Tiger Who Came To Tea', and 'Not Now Bernard', 'There's No Such Thing As TheTooth Fairy!' is a sweetly engaging, funny and relatable story about sibling rivalry which also serves as a warning about how difficult it can be to change one's beliefs, even when faced with evidence to the contrary.

No matter what she says or what proof she has Henry is convinced he is right, so will anything that Harriet says change her little brother's mind?

Read this book with your children and nurture their little minds, encourage their natural curiosity and sense of adventure.

At the back of the book is a BONUS 3 page introduction to How Our Brains Work and the importance of Critical thinking. This should be a good conversation starter to teach children the essential life skills they will need to navigate through the world and make good sound decisions!

In these digital days of the internet and social media, where we are all constantly bombarded with misinformation, fake-news and post-truths, this book attempts to show young children HOW to think, not WHAT to think.
