RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, UNITED STATES, November 30, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Belle Isle Books of Richmond, Virginia, is pleased to announce the release of a new children’s picture book, 'The Legend of Tooth Hollow,' written by Medhaa Banaji and illustrated by Mariana Flyak.

The valley of Tooth Hollow is a peaceful place, hidden between rivers of bubblegum toothpaste and clouds of white floss that keep it safe from any cavity monsters that might threaten its pearly-white residents. But without the careful, consistent attention of the fluoride task force, the guardian tooth fairies, and the plaque patrol, those monsters might sneak in after a sugar storm and terrorize all of Tooth Hollow’s innocent teeth! Through this fun and illuminating story, child readers will learn about all the ways to keep teeth healthy, and be introduced to Tooth Hollow’s most important guardian: themselves!

Written by a dental student, and filled with imaginative illustrations that will delight children who are learning to practice good dental hygiene, 'The Legend of Tooth Hollow' was released on November 30, 2023.

'Flora is a sweet little tooth who lives in the magical land of Tooth Hollow, where fairies and soldiers live in harmony to protect teeth from the cavity monsters. But when Flora wakes up one day feeling strange, will the heroes of Tooth Hollow be able to make her feel all better?'
