Description

A classic work by Dr. Seuss writing as Theo LeSieg, with new illustrations by Jon Mathieu, about who has teeth, who doesn't, and how to keep the ones you have. Learn about this very important body part that lets us talk, eat, and more in this useful guide. From a lion's mouth to a clam's, explore all the things teeth can do, how they grow, and how to keep them in tip-top shape!

Dr. Seuss (who was known as Theodor Geisel when he wasn't writing or drawing) wrote and illustrated 44 books for children and their lucky parents. But sometimes Dr. Seuss liked to write books and have someone else draw the pictures. For those books he used the pen name Theo LeSieg (which is Geisel spelled backward!).

Jon Mathieu has drawn the pictures for many children's books — in fact, The Tooth Book is his 100th book. He lives in Brooklyn, Connecticut, where he likes to ride bicycles, cook, and play ragtime music on the piano.

Chew, chomp, and smile with Dr. Seuss in this hilarious book all about teeth — perfect for the littlest readers! Dr. Seuss's rhymes will delight young readers and help them discover the world around them, starting with their own bodies.
