The Tooth Book Worksheets

by Dr. Seuss writing as Theo. LeSieg

Reading Level K · Lexile 510L · ATOS 2.1

Who has teeth? Red-headed uncles, zebras, camels, a girl named Ruthie and a lion all do, and a dinner-table family, a crocodile, a trapeze star and a news broadcaster tell what teeth are handy for. A sad snail, a clam and a jellyfish tell what they can't do without teeth, and Hilda Hen has happy news for the reader about growing two sets. A funny, rhyming Dental Health Month read-aloud about who has teeth and how to keep them.
