I made up this story in Fort Qu’Appelle, Saskatchewan in 1982 for a kid with 4 missing front teeth.
It went over very well and I started to use it whenever I told stories to grades one, two or three, where lots of kids have loose teeth.
I had never kept track of the original kid whom the story was about, so I decided to use my son Andrew, who never liked it when I tried to pull out his loose teeth.
