Advice from a "knowledgeable" second grader has the first grade worry-wart convinced that her new teacher is really a three-hundred-year old alien who steals baby teeth from her students. Which is especially worrisome since she has a secret: her first tooth is loose! A witty, and spot-on depiction of first-day-of-school jitters, this clever take on losing a tooth will reassure as it amuses both children, their parents and their teachers!
