Reviews

[CanadianReader · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great book for early primary. Not only does it provide basic information about primary and permanent teeth and basic tooth anatomy for young primary students, it also addresses, in an accessible way, how tooth decay occurs. Diet and good dental hygiene are also addressed. The font is large and the photos large and bright, making this suitable for a read-aloud in health class.
