If you could have any animal's front teeth, whose would you choose?
"WHAT IF YOU HAD ANIMAL TEETH?" takes children on a fun,
informative, and imaginative journey as they explore what it would
be like if their own front teeth were replaced by those of a
different animal. Featuring a dozen animals (beaver, great white
shark, narwhal, elephant, rattlesnake, naked mole rat,
hippopotamus, crocodile, and more), this book explores how
different teeth are especially adapted for an animal's survival. At
the end of the book, children will discover why their own teeth are
just right for them. And they'll also get a friendly reminder to
take good care of their teeth, because they're the only teeth
they'll ever have. Each spread features a photograph of the animal
using its specialized teeth on the left and a humorous illustrated
image of a child using that animal's teeth on the right.
