description: Publishers Weekly With unadorned yet comically lurid prose, British author Moss seems to channel the six-year-old mindset with this tooth saga. At first, nothing in the mouth of hero William wants to his "teeth seemed stuck, superglued to his gums." The author never minces words, and the result is gross, hilarious and true-to-life. She fearlessly describes "loose tooth stories" starring teeth that twist "round and round," fall into toilets and even get stuck up noses. Finally, William tells his teacher, "My tooth moved! I felt it!" Debut artist Mockler's full-bleed and panel illustrations capture the up-for-grabs ambience of an elementary school classroom. At the same time, her childlike cartoon style tempers the obsessiveness of the hero, and insures that the goings-on stay on the sunny side even as the drama (which includes an accidental discarding of William's finally detached tooth) unfolds
