the dentist and now it's his turn! Mum helps to guide him and
together they role play and learn all about a child's first visit
to the dentist and hygienist. This wonderful book will help prepare
and acclimatise children for their first dental adventure so they
look forward to every visit! The rewards being a healthy mouth and
stickers of course! 10% of profits will be donated to charity.
"How about a story? Spin us a yarn." Instantly, Phoebe Winterbottom came to mind. "I could tell you an extensively strange story," I warned. "Oh, good!" Gram said. "Delicious!" And that is how I happened to tell them about Phoebe, her disappearing mother, and the lunatic.
As Sal entertains her grandparents with Phoebe's outrageous story, her own story begins to unfold--the story of a thirteen-year-old girl whose only wish is to be reunited with her missing mother. In her own award-winning style, Sharon Creech intricately weaves together two tales, one funny, one bittersweet, to create a heartwarming, compelling, and utterly moving story of love, loss, and the complexity of human emotion.
