A review by bookishrealm
Tallulah The Tooth Fairy CEO by Tamara Pizzoli, Federico Fabiani

2.0

Eh. While I absolutely loved the artwork of this picture book, I think that I only enjoyed it as an adult. It didn't feel as though it was written for children especially down to some of the racial irony that was used within the text. I understand where the author was coming from as a black female adult; however, if I was to sit down and attempt to read this to my daughter when she turns 4 or 5 I honestly don't believe that she would come close to even beginning to understand anything that the text is attempting to say. I also didn't get the ending of the book or the purpose of the ending. It just featured a boy who misplaced the tooth that he lost. Tallulah sort of addresses how to handle the problem, but to be honest it really isn't explored. I don't know I'm the only reader who felt this way, but I loved the art just not the story itself.
