About this audiobook
A dentist’s nightmare, the fairy is down to a lone cuspid. She longs for a friend, but remains lonely and alone until one fateful Halloween when she watches the trick-or-treaters and ventures out to find a kindred companion. With its colorful candy and fun sounds, The Toothless Fairy will appeal to children of primary school age or younger, while the message of selfworth and image works for elementary grades and older as well. Much like her beloved taffy, the fairy’s outer wrapper and soft inner core are sure to bring smiles and possibly a craving for sweets.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The Toothless Fairy by Timothy Jordan is a cute book for kids about a lonely fairy that wants a friend and her looks scare kids. She finds she fits in on Halloween. It was adorable illustrations showing how "creepy" she is and how she makes friends in the end. Weird but cute. LOL. Thanks NetGalley for suggesting this book.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is a cute little story about a lonely fairy who wants friends but is afraid of being rejected because she is toothless and is convinced she would scare them away. Then she sees how children are not afraid of Halloween costumes so she decides that Halloween might be a great time to try to make friends. My son who is 6 years old was very interested when I told him I had a book for him to read with me because of the title itself. He loved the rhyme and enjoyed the story so much he asked me to read it again.I received a copy of this book from the publishers via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The Toothless Fairy by Timothy Jordan is a book for children ages zero to twelve. I gave it three stars. The toothless fairy found a friend on Halloween. It's about establishing new traditions & sharing.I received a complimentary kindle edition from Night River Press & NetGalley. That did not change my opinion for this review.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The toothless fairy is a wonderfully illustrated children's book with some good messages. Using Hallowe'en as a backdrop, the toothless fairy goes out looking for friends. She is lonely and thinks she will scare anyone that she tries to be friends with because she thinks having no theeth makes her ugly. On Hallowe'en, the children do not seem to be afraid of scary things, so she makes her move. When she approaches a little girl in her room at night, the girl is not frightened. She offers a gift, a clarinet, in exchange for candy. They play and have fun. They decide to make this a Hallowe'en tradition. Messages about loneliness, making friends, not judging by appearance, and of course that too much candy is not good for you are all there. The illustrations are amazing. The fairy is actually fun to look at and the colours in the pictures are vibrant and eye catching. A great book for family, classroom, school and public libraries.I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
