Agapanthus Hum and the Angel Hoot

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Jennifer Plecas. In Agapanthus's third adventure, she loses a tooth and makes a whistling sound that her father calls an "angel hoot." When her dog sings along, Agapanthus takes him to school for a show-and-tell duet. Agapanthus is more engaging than she was in her first book, but the author's note and the text's references to "good little Daddy" and "good little Mommy" are cutesy and condescending.
