When a tooth falls out, the Tooth Fairy comes to collect it and leaves a surprise under your pillow, at least in the United States. When a tooth falls out in Mexico, it's collected by el Raton Perez. So what happens when a Mexican American boy loses a tooth? They duke it out, of course? This is a heartwarming story about intercultural cooperation.
Audience: Anyone old enough to lose teeth. It should be entertaining for all ages.
What I Love:
1. A Latio boy is shown living in a middle-class neighborhood
2. It's funny
3. The illustrations are amazing
4. It has a good message
Cautions: There are some Spanish words. Both a recommendation and a caution
