The Berenstain Bears receive a visit from the tooth fairy in this charming 8×8 storybook.
When Sister Bear notices that she has a loose tooth, she can’t wait for it to fall out. The Tooth Fairy will come and leave a quarter under her pillow! But then Sister finds out that her good friend Lizzy Bruin got a whole dollar for the last tooth she lost. Now Sister can’t wait to find out how much the Tooth Fairy will leave her this time.

This book literally makes me laugh out loud with the humor put in for parents. We have a very old copy and love The Berenstain Bears Visit the Dentist where sister has a loose tooth, and here again she has another loose tooth, but this time the focus is on the quarter (or dollar) that comes from the tooth fairy. This little story is fun to include another childhood whimsical fancy such as the tooth fairy, but it includes some economics as well with inflation and equality of fairness. It’s amusing. It entertained my daughter with the story and entertained me with reality.

Stan and Jan Berenstain began writing the Berenstain Bears series in 1962, with The Big Honey Hunt. Since then more than 250 Berenstain Bears books have been published and sales of the series are nearing 300 million. When Stan passed away in 2005, he left behind a legacy of arguably the best-selling children’s book series ever. The Berenstains have kept the Bears books a family affair, with son Mike now writing and illustrating with his mother. You can visit them online at www.berenstainbears.com.
