"I Lost my Tooth in Africa" is a cute story about a girl named Amina. She lives in Portland, Oregon and her family is traveling to Mali to visit family. She has a loose tooth and really hopes to lose it while she is in Africa. If she looses it while she's in Africa, she will receive a chicken from the African Tooth Fairy. This story expresses the excitement many children get when they start to lose teeth. It emphasizes the tooth fairy tradition in another culture and shows children and shows the differences. I also like how other traditions are talked about, such as waking up every morning and greeting the grandmother for blessings. I stumbled across this book at the library while browsing and was drawn in by the hilarious and cute title. The story is about what happened when the author's sister lost her tooth on a family trip to Mali (spoiler: there a chickens involved). The illustrations are eye-catching and joyful, and the story is just as fun as the title. Preschooler Monkey is very eager to lose a tooth now! (As I'm writing this, she's upstairs playing with her cousin. "Let's pretend we're in Africa! I lost my tooth!") aucune critique | ajouter une critique

This book highlights some key parts of African culture as a young girl goes to visit her family in Africa. This book also teaches about loosing a tooth and would be fun to use in a classroom to teach about loosing teeth and a little information on another culture. ( )
