"I Love to Brush My Teeth" is the third children's story about kids who hated brushing their teeth that I've read in the last few months. It's obviously a big part of learning personal hygiene at an early age. In the story, Jimmy the bunny rabbit hated brushing his teeth. His mom and older brothers were as persuasive as they could be, but to no avail. Even when Jimmy's toothbrush comes to life and warns him of the consequences of not brushing, Jimmy ignores her (the toothbrush's name is Leah). When Jimmy's food runs away from him, and his friends avoid him due to his bad breath, he finally gets the message, which is: Your toothbrush is your friend.It's a good story, one that kids need to take to heart and practice their own dental hygiene from an early age.Incidentally, I learned something new. I always thought rabbits have only four teeth, those big incisors that are so noticeable. I was curious, so I looked it up. Rabbits actually have 28 teeth, consisting of the following: four incisors, two auxiliary incisors, six upper premolars, four lower premolars, six upper molars, and six lower molars. That's a lot of teeth to brush.
