Rina lost her first tooth at the end of last year. It was a big drama to get it out – she wouldn’t let Dad touch it all and resorted to a family friend to accidentally knock it out, while he was really trying to knock it out. The friend in question just had to wipe a wet towel across her mouth and the tooth fell out. Simple as that. Then she discovered the “tooth fairy” and the magical money that she brings – though she was not quite sure what you did with money at that stage, a completely different story. But Rina did know that the money was valuable and had some intrinsic value to it. Yet once she did work it out after buying something with the first prize from the tooth fairy she then decided that it would be time to try and pull some more. Any time a tooth became the slightest bit loose she tried wiggling it a little more and more till eventually at school one came out. She then tried calculating how much she would have if she pulled out more teeth.
