My Teeth (Start Reading) ISBN: 9780750263801
Llewellyn, Claire
Published by Wayland, 2011
Part of the Yellow Band 3 Start Reading series from Wayland, this little book will be enjoyed by beginner readers. but could also be used with younger children as basic information about teeth. A jolly little boy is pictured throughout. 'My teeth are hard and white and strong', he tells us, and he learns how to keep them that way. Sometimes his mum looks over his shoulder and gives advice, but the star of the show is the boy. We see him eating and learning about germs, finding out what foods are good for teeth and which ones are bad. We see him at the dentist (although there is very little detail here), and at the end he gives us a little quiz where we have to decide which of the many pictured foods are good for healthy teeth and which are not. It's fun and informative without being too detailed and is best as a general overview of teeth and how to keep them healthy.
