Book Reviews of What-the-Dickens: The Story of a Rogue Tooth Fairy
Book Review: He Does It Again!
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a really nice (clean) story of the toothfairy. Or, one of the tooth fairies, I should say. I love all Gregory Maguire but I think some are much more adult books (the Wicked series, for instance). This is more for a young adult. Tells the story of being an outsider and finding friends.
Summary of What-the-Dickens: The Story of a Rogue Tooth Fairy
"Gregory Maguire does for the dark and stormy night what he did for witches in Wicked." ? The New York Times Book ReviewA terrible storm is raging, and Dinah is huddled by candlelight with her brother, sister, and cousin Gage, who is telling a very unusual tale. It?s thestory of What-the-Dickens, a newly hatched orphan creature who finds he has an attraction to teeth, a crush on a cat named McCavity, and a penchant for getting into trouble. One day he happens upon a feisty girl skibberee working as an Agent of Change ? trading coins for teeth ? and learns of a dutiful tribe of tooth fairies to which he hopes to belong. As his tale unfolds, however, both What-the-Dickens and Dinah come to see that the world is both richer and far less sure than they ever imagined.
