This is a story about a basic dental check-up, with nice photographs and easy-to-read text. It has a few issues:
- not terribly sturdy (better than some, but the pages on this free library copy were already falling out)
- tagged as ISBN 978-1-59566-533-1, which is for Life Cycles Caterpillar to Butterfly (and THAT listing has some problems I don't want to get into)
- informs the narrator that he has twenty teeth, without specifying, "...for now!" so the narrator (and reader) might mistakenly believe twenty teeth is all we ever get

Okay, but not an AMAZING book or anything.

bit too kinky for a children’s book also really long :/

Early readers can handle the exposition-type writing. Great layout and photos to help structure nonfiction text (table of contents, headings, bolded vocabulary, glossary). I like the font and font size- very appealing for the little readers in your life.

For toddlers, a good read aloud and discussion on forming healthy habits.
