For small children worrying about the existence of childhood's "special" friends--especially Tooth Fairy but also Santa Claus and Easter Bunny--here's a story to allay any and all misgivings. Little Hippo is proving to be a serious "doubting Thomas," and Tooth Fairy's not at all pleased! Sure, "the tooth-for-coin exchange thing" is a little late tonight, but is she to blame for the rain that's upsetting her delivery schedule? Can she help it if wet wings don't work as well as dry ones? Fortunately for Little Hippo, seeing is believing, and, in no time at all, his faith in Tooth Fairy and magic is fully restored. This engaging adventure, cleverly illustrated to convey and complement the tongue-in-cheek tone of the story, will delight even the most skeptical young readers.
