When a little girl loses a tooth, a tiny door opens in a nearby tree. Lovely contrasts as the fairy in long dress and wings mines the ore, smelts the metal and stamps out the coin. And once the tooth has been exchanged we find out what she wants it for. The artist has a wonderful sense of scale and a simple direct way of telling this unusual tale. The book is in one sense a meditation on smallness.
Every picture counts and is worth lingering over.
None would look out of place on the wall.
