The Sugar Bug Castle: A Bedtime Adventure About Why We Brush Our Teeth Before Sleep: An Exciting Read Aloud Story Book for Kids Ages 4-8 Brushing, Dental Hygiene and Healthy Habits

It is 7:40 in the evening and Goldie has brushed the front four teeth. The back ones, she has decided, can look after themselves. They cannot. Because inside every mouth there is a kingdom called Molara, and tonight it is under attack. Sog and his Tangle are building a sticky castle out of everything Goldie has ever left behind, and by sunrise it will set like stone. The only thing standing between the kingdom and a hole that stays is a thimble-sized guard named Bristle, a two-minute hourglass of star sand, and a seven-year-old girl who has never once stayed the full two minutes. The Sugar Bug Castle is the bedtime story that ends the brushing argument, because it gives children the one thing a lecture never can: a reason they can see. Along the way it quietly teaches the technique dental teams actually recommend, two minutes, four zones, thirty counts each, plus why the night brushing matters most, why you spit and do not rinse, and what lives in the canyons a brush cannot reach. Inside this book: - A full-length read-aloud adventure in nine chapters with 46 illustrated story pages, for ages 4 to 8 - The Four Zones map and the Two Minute Countdown, the exact method Bristle teaches Goldie - Grown-up pages on night-time saliva, fluoride, flossing, food timing and brush care - A stick-on-the-cupboard Bedtime Routine Card and a 14 Night Challenge tracker - Nine discussion questions, a tooth glossary and the Bedtime Brushing Pledge >If your evening currently includes a dry toothbrush and a child counting to two, this book was written for your bathroom.
