Description
One morning in Maine, Sal woke up. She peeked over the top of the covers. The bright sunlight made her blink, so she pulled the covers up and was just about to go back to sleep when she remembered “today is the day I am going to Buck’s Harbor with my father!”
As Sal brushes her teeth she notices something strange.
One of her teeth is loose! Her first loose tooth!
When the tooth falls out, she’ll be able to put it under her pillow and make a wish. But while Sal digs for clams with Dad, her loose tooth becomes a lost tooth. How can she make her wish now? Luckily and exciting trip to Buck’s Harbor with Dad and baby Jane helps make Sal’s wish come true.
In this heartwarming story, Robert McCloskey beautifully conveys life’s everyday pleasures and his intimate knowledge and deep appreciation of the Maine islands. Recommended for ages 3 to 8. A 1953 Caldecott Honor book.
