Teeth

A parent would reach for this book when their child first notices a loose tooth or begins asking why their pet dog's mouth looks so different from their own. It serves as a comforting and educational bridge for children navigating the physical changes of growing up, specifically the milestone of losing baby teeth. The book provides a clear, age-appropriate look at the biological functions of teeth across the animal kingdom while reinforcing the importance of dental hygiene. By moving from the familiar human experience to the exotic world of animal biology, it transforms a potentially scary visit to the dentist into a grand scientific adventure. It is ideal for 5 to 8 year olds who are ready to move beyond simple picture books into more detailed, concept-driven nonfiction.
