"The Tooth Book" is a classic Dr. Seuss book except in this book he is trying to teach a underlying lesson about oral hygiene. It is a book all about teeth.
This is not my favorite Dr. Seuss book, but it is still cute. I like how this book teaches children all about the importance of caring for
For the classroom, I would get a empty coffee can and put in slips of paper with a food or drink on written on them. I would have students take turns pulling out the slips of paper and say whether or not the food was good for your teeth or bad for their teeth.

This is a great book to teach children to read because of the rhyming words and repetitive text. Children will enjoy the vivid illustrations and silly subject matter. Children will gain confidence by learning to read the simple text in this book.

A book that I hope everyone has read at one point in their life because it is so amusing, and educational at the same time. This teaches about an important aspect in children's lives, personal hygiene it also makes a normally scary experience not so terrifying. Kids are often afraid of the dentist

Personal Reaction: I love books that address the health and safety of the body. I think when it comes to kiddos, unless they see, watch, or hear of what could happen when you dont take care of your body, they do not believe you.
Extension Ideas: Use one of those body part human models to use while reading this book or any other body part related book. Until the child really understands about it they will not remember or retain it.

This book doesn’t have the same feel as other Dr. Seuss book have. The flow is a lot different. But this book explains a lot about teeth and why they are important. It even explains the teeth in animals. It makes children want to brush their teeth.
