Andrew's tooth won't budge, causing him pain and frustration. Despite attempts by his dad, a dentist, and even the Tooth Fairy on a motorcycle, the tooth remains stubbornly in place. With creativity and a dash of pepper, Andrew's friend Louis devises a plan to finally dislodge the tooth. Will this unconventional method succeed where others have failed? Discover the surprising solution that sends Andrew's tooth flying across town.

From the publisher

Andrew’s tooth is killing him, but it just won’t fall out. So what do they do? Call the Tooth Fairy, of course! Andrew bites into an apple and his loose tooth hurts. So his dad tries to take it out with a big pair of pliers, but no luck. So they call the dentist, who tries to pull it out with his car, but no luck. So Andrew’s friend Louis calls the Tooth Fairy. She comes on her motorcycle and tries to pull out the tooth, but no luck. So it’s up to Louis –he uses pepper to make Andrew sneeze the tooth all the way across town.
