Personalised book for a child’s first lost tooth

What happens in your child's First Tooth Falls Out

1. Your child notices a front tooth wobbling at breakfast.
2. The tooth wiggles through an ordinary day at home.
3. It falls out suddenly into your child’s hand.
4. Your child examines the tiny tooth and the new gap in the mirror.
5. Your child chooses a special little place to keep the tooth.

How the first page could read

This morning, your child feels something strange with their tongue. The little tooth at the front is wobbling more than yesterday. At breakfast it wiggles, at the mirror it wiggles again, and then—plip—there it is, resting in your child’s hand. What should your child do with such a tiny treasure?

Your child’s name, look and little details replace these words, and the whole story is written for their age.

Why this story works

A first lost tooth can arrive in the middle of breakfast, play or a quiet moment at home, bringing excitement and a few practical questions all at once. This gentle hometown story gives your child a familiar setting for noticing the wobble, seeing the little gap and deciding where their tooth might go. It keeps the focus on the small details children often want to inspect: the tiny tooth in their palm, the space in the mirror and the change to their smile. Made from one photo of your child, the 32-page book places your child at the centre of a moment they are likely to talk about again and again.

Reading it together

• Read it when a tooth first begins to wobble, so your child can become familiar with what may happen.
• Pause at the mirror scene and invite your child to describe what they think a new gap might feel like.
• After reading, let your child choose a small safe place for keeping their own tooth, if it has already fallen out.

Suggested art style: Storybook watercolour

Soft storybook watercolour gives the familiar home scenes a calm, close-up feel suited to this small milestone. A sidekick idea: a cheerful house sparrow who notices every wobble. You can pick any of the four styles and change the details in the form.
