BOOK

Kimonas beats his brother at everything. Especially at losing… teeth! Leonidas wants to lose his baby teeth but they refuse to budge. How can he get rid of them so he can feel as proud as his brother does? Can he pull them out with a string? Should he eat lots of apples? Could he try to loosen them with his tongue? Maybe Leonidas shouldn’t be in such a big hurry. His teeth will come out eventually…but how? By surprise… (Level 2 - Fish: 30pp, 400 words)
