Description

This is the way we brush our teeth.
Do you know what to do?

First open up the cupboard.
Now which brush belongs to you?

Get ready to brush your teeth in this adorable slider book, full of gentle messages to help little ones with their daily routines.

This rhyming story is perfect for reading aloud together with toddlers, building familiarity and confidence about tooth-brushing, and introducing some fun ideas for all the family to try. Little ones will love to slide the toothbrush from side to side, turn the wheel to make water come out of the tap and lift a flap to see teddy brush his teeth.

For parents and carers, each page features short practical tips to help you and your child, consulted by Early Years expert Lizzie Noble.

About the Author

Fernando is a freelance illustrator from Valencia, Spain. He graduated in Media and Audiovisial Communication, but drawing is what he enjoys the most. It connects him with his childhood, when there were no big worries.
Fernando works mainly digitally and he likes using limited but colourful palettes. His illustrations are inspired by childhood memories, travelling experiences, 80's cartoons and music. When he is not drawing, Fernando enjoys reading, watching movies or hiking.
