Illustrated by Kantinka Kew
When Jack asks his mother about tooth fairies, his misconceptions about how they operate are put right by the tooth fairy herself who types out her story for him to find along with his coin for his missing tooth. 'Nothing' tells of how she became the tooth fairy, where teeth go and much more besides. Nothing is far from the stereotype dainty fairy and her revelations are bound to amuse readers who will equally delight in the portrayal of both her and the fearsome gang of tooth collectors.
