Excerpts

Miguelito wiggled and jiggled his loose tooth until one night, it fell out.
 
“Yay!Mi diente,my tooth,”he said, and put it under his pillow.
 
Soon Miguelito fell asleep.
 
 
Far away in her castle, the Tooth Fairy read fan letters, counted coins, and searched for addresses.
 
When she saw a star begin to twinkle in the sky, she rushed for her magic wand.
 
“Fantastic! The signal!” she said. “A new tooth!”
