The Little Tooth

Once upon a time there was a little bump....

It was a bump in a gum, and soon it would be breaking through....

All the other teeth were excited!

Some of the teeth had already though up names for the baby.

How about Tracey?
Bill!
Paula?
I like Steven

As they watched the bump grow, they knew it wouldn't be long before they saw the beautiful new tooth.

And soon the wonderful day seemed to be right on them!

But suddenly, the person who had the mouth went for a long walk...

All the teeth watched with curiosity as they saw a big building coming up to them. The mouth went into a little room, and a secretary met it.

Then a man, in a white coat, came to talk, and an appointment card was signed.

The mouth went home again, and the teeth all wondered what the appointment was for....

But soon they forgot about it, as the birth of the new tooth got their attention.
