Full of fun and packed with adventure, The Tooth Fairy and the Crocodile tells the tale of Ruth Mary, the tooth fairy, who gets more than she bargained for when she collects the teeth of some jungle animals, including a less-than-friendly crocodile! A brilliantly illustrated story from picture-book superstars Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks - perfect for any child with a wobbly tooth!

Ruth Mary is used to collecting teeth from under the pillows of sleeping children, not animals. But when the Fairy Queen sends her off to the jungle, Ruth Mary doesn't mind. And all is going well. That is, until she collects the tooth of a crocodile, who wakes up and decides Ruth Mary looks like a tasty snack! And with her wings not working, how will the tooth fairy escape?

From the creators of the What the Ladybird Heard adventures, which have sold over four million copies worldwide.
