How to Rob the Tooth Fairy was inspired by her brother, Toms, with whom she is pictured, who desperately wanted his tooth fairy to deliver on-time. It was he who birthed the original plan, but Jada brought his vision to print. Needless to say, Toms, like Jack, was very happy with his tooth fairy and his little sisters quirky rendition of his experience. It is Jadas desire that you, her readers, enjoy reading this book as much as she enjoyed writing it.
