Beskrivelse

(On Audible, too.) This ACTION-PACKED ADVENTURE is about the MOST FAMOUS, YET MOST MYSTERIOUS, fairy in the world. Yes, the FIRST tooth fairy has a story-and it is an EXCITING ONE! A reluctant, swashbuckling hero that saves the Hidden World, and the Human World, and starts the trading tradition we all know and love. Our parents introduced us, but this is the amazing story of its origin, full of DANGER, DARING, HUMOR, MEANING, and FUN.



Never told until now, The Legend Of Toof follows Toof, a native woodland sprite, as he struggles to survive, discover his destiny... and meet the humans and fairies that help him change the world forever, and the better!



Born quite different from his peers, his uniqueness, odd appearance, and courage allows him to survive in a horrible prison atop a frozen mountain top. Trapped with a hundred other fairies-and his mother, Toof must make a life and death decision! Try to escape to the warm world and search for his father or stay with his mother and forever serve the wicked ruler of the Hidden World-a ruthless flying gremlin with plans to attack the Human World too!



But how can he escape when no one has before? Toof is just a little sprite. Does his life have a purpose, a reason for being, a destiny? Can he defeat a powerful gremlin and an army of drolls? Can he save the Little World, the Hidden World, and the big Human World, too? Can he protect his friends, family, and children? Do even the smallest, most challenged among us have destinies worth achieving? Does Toof?



In The Legend Of Toof, we follow Toof's incredible journey across the ocean and around the world to reveal those answers and uncover the power of a tooth. It also introduces many new wonderful characters to contemporary literature including Toba and TIncy from Africa; Eillo from Italy; Hidee from the Nordic lands; Kisme from France; Redi from Ireland; Willow and Sage prairie fairies from the North American west; Rekee from Mexico; Lexaf from South Africa; wise, old Fuddle from Europe; Dilin, a fairy poet, Rateen the mouse; Silly Squirrel; the Famous Tooth Mouse Of Spain, Señor El Ratoncito de Los Dientes Perez; villains Colsore, Deekay and Plaak and drolls Ginja and Vitus, Toof's parents Garstina and Kahn, two human children, Pixie and Peter Broadgrin, and Grinny (Hmmm, is she related to Pixie, or not?).



During his worldwide quest, readers also discover how the tooth-trading tradition began, and why it is so very important to continue. For the first time, we learn when humans began putting a tooth under a pillow and why sprites and elles need them. This fun-filled, action-adventure is for children of all ages, parents included, who have ever wondered: How do tooth fairies do what they do? Why do they do it? How do they know who has lost a tooth? How do they find the child? Where do they come from, live, and get the special tooth fairy coins they leave behind? AND, HOW DO THEY FLIGHT AS FAST AS LIGHT?



This fast-paced fantasy is based on real-life human events that take place multiple times to every child, everywhere! It is FULL OF FUN AND DISCOVERY and may well prompt discussions on important topics such as the world around us, our environment, the need the protect it from pollution and those who abuse it, dirty fuel versus clean fuel, renewable energy, distant countries, and different cultures.
