This modern teaching tale will delight children while imparting a valuable lesson on the importance of taking good care of their teeth. With a rich sense of humor and delightful illustrations, Ross' experience with Jack the Tooth Rat provides the perfect way of explaining that teeth with cavities won't get rewards.
