A funny, engaging, picture-book approach to dental health for young readers
Looking After My Teeth is about Marta and her dog, Billy. Billy loves eating chocolate, but it has given him a bad tooth and he has to go to the vet to get it taken out.
Not long after this, Marta's front tooth starts to wobble and she worries that she has to have it removed, just like Billy! Marta's mother explains that everyone loses their baby teeth and that they are replaced by adult teeth. The dentist shows how Marta can look after her adult teeth so that they will be strong and healthy for her whole life.
Illustrated in Mike Gordon`s inimitable and entertaining style, this book is an ideal introduction to the idea of looking after your teeth. Notes for adults and lists of further resources make these books ideal for KS1 classroom use.
