The Lost-and-Found Tooth

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Adam Gustavson. Lucy is bummed that "every second grader in Room 19 had already lost some baby teeth. Everyone but me." The story compassionately follows Lucy's anticipation (and trepidation) about losing her first tooth. Her personal story weaves into her class's story in an idyllic picture of second grade that will be appreciated by many readers. Watercolors reflect the warmth of the classroom setting.
