I have had a loose tooth for a long time. I couldn't get it out.

Then one day one I was reading one of my favourite books: The Penderwicks. I started to play with my tooth then I heard a crack of the root I turned it around and then it came out.

I ran to tell Mum I just could not wait to hear what she would say. But Mum was on the phone so I went in search of Imogen to tell her what had happened. I just could not keep it to myself.


When Mum got of the phone she gave me $2 for my tooth. I do not believe in the tooth fairy. Do you?

As soon as Dad got home I told him all about it. Dinner was so much better tasting now that I did not have a tooth to get in the way and bleed.
