With so many beautiful books out there, we hope to be a helpful resource for you. So you can focus on being inspired and fill your home with all of the magical stories we’ve found. Here are our favorite Tooth Fairy books for storytime – plus a few other magical must haves.

Our favorite books about the Tooth Fairy

There are hundreds, maybe even thousands of Kindergarten books based on the Tooth Fairy. Little ones have big questions, and are also eager to find out as much info as they can about this winged magical creature that swaps their teeth for treasure. Parents don’t always know everything when it comes to all things Tooth Fairy, though it can be fun to start a made up story, the magic of the Tooth Fairy is for adults too! Below we will share our favorite Tooth Fairy books for storytime. They cover not only the story of the origin of the Tooth Fairy, but the values and traditions held in Fairyland, from exchanging teeth for magic, to real life Tooth Fairy training and sibling love! Did you know that each teensy tiny Tooth Fairy letter written in magical rhyming poem from the Tooth Fairy in every gold gift bag by Hold The Magic shares a fun story from Fairyland with a positive life lesson gently tucked in (be kind, brush your teeth twice a day, eat healthy, care for yourself, protect the planet). The Tooth Fairy is a wonderful teacher inspiring hope and spreading good in the world!

Lucy Tooth

By Hold The Magic, Inc., Published by Flashlight Stories

Our very own Lucy Tooth stars in her debut novel. A story of a very tiny fairy with a fairy big idea. This 32 page, beautifully illustrated hardcover book gives us a peek into the magical world of Fairyland, which is much closer than you’d think! Lucy Tooth is a real life Tooth Fairy who dares to wonder what might happen if Tooth Fairies left something more magical than money. Together with her Fairy friends, she decides to find out and launches a brand new lost tooth tradition.

This story will help your child understand that they will lose their teeth to be replaced by bigger ones, that many Tooth Fairies leave money in exchange for each lost tooth, while others sometimes receive tiny gifts and letters to help hold the magic of childhood. It’s a wonderful gift before the first wiggly tooth. A rhyming story that inspires hope, imagination, curiousity, and encourages search and find fun with hidden pictures! (Psst… Lucy Tooth suggests trying to find the hidden pictures with her fairy magnifying glass, which she calls a “Bigger” to help read tiny fairy letters.
