Reviews

Grade 1-3-- Best friends Robby and Arlo dress alike and do most of the same things. However, their friendship is in jeopardy over a bet about who will lose the next tooth. Hafner's realistic and humorous illustrations provide ample reading clues on every page. (Check out Arlo's daydream vision of the tooth fairy flying over a disbelieving cat!) This book is unassuming but provides a good story for young readers on peer relationships as they learn to balance their wants with others. It should encourage emerging readers to flex their reading muscles. --Gale W. Sherman, Pocatello Public Library, Idaho
