Our Review

Mo Willems brings his signature blend of humor and heart to the early reader format with this story about Zoom Squirrel's dental dilemma. When a baby tooth goes missing, an entire ensemble of concerned Squirrels leaps into action, turning a simple childhood milestone into a page-turning, furry adventure. The narrative is perfectly paced for new readers, using expressive dialogue and visual gags that make the reading experience feel more like a play than a book.

What truly sets this beginning-reader book apart are the interactive extras woven throughout, including bonus jokes, quirky quizzes, and nutty facts that extend the fun. The energetic cast of characters and the relatable anxiety over a lost tooth will resonate deeply with kids navigating their own early reading journeys and dental developments. It’s a hilarious and engaging package that successfully transforms a moment of panic into a celebration, ensuring readers will be cracking up as they build their confidence.
