Twinkle the Tooth Fairy

Best Friends, Harmony, Rhapsody and Barnaby the Bizzy Buzzy Bee skipped through the door of the Magical Mystery Tree ready for a game of hide and seek in the top of the garden.

Harmony covered her eyes and counted to fairy ten while Rhapsody and Barnaby hid.

'Fairy one, fairy two, fairy three, fairy four, fairy five, fairy six, fairy seven, fairy eight, fairy nine, fairy ten! Coming, ready or not!' called Harmony.

When Harmony had found them both, it was Barnaby's turn to cover his eyes. But just as he started to count, he heard the children from the top of the garden heading their way.

'Harmony, Rhapsody, quick … fairy size!' Barnaby warned them.

Lily was telling her cousin, Emma about her first wobbly Tooth. Harmony and Rhapsody were both excited for Lily. 'We must tell Twinkle the Tooth Fairy!' said Rhapsody.

'Do you really think the Tooth Fairy will visit me?' asked Lily. Emma smiled and nodded as she gave Lily a hug. 'Of course, Lily. The Tooth Fairy comes when you're fast asleep and swaps your tooth for a shiny coin.'

Emma and Lily ran off to play. Harmony and Rhapsody waved their wands at the Magical Mystery Tree. 'To Fairyland,' said Barnaby, and they skipped through the secret door together.

Barnaby buzzed off to tell Elf about their adventure. Harmony giggled. 'Oooh, how exciting! I haven't seen Twinkle the Tooth Fairy for such a long time!'

'Let's send her a letter by Fairymail,' suggested Rhapsody.

Special magic fairy wand
With this little spell
Please bring me pretty fairy paper
And a pen as well!

Dear Twinkle,' Rhapsody wrote, 'Please come to Fairyland as soon as possible. Love from Harmony and Rhapsody.'

Rhapsody popped the letter into the mushroom letterbox and the fairies sand together…

We wrote a special letter
This letter now we send
Please grow wings and fly, fly, fly
Take this letter to our friend.

With its dainty wings and bells, the Fairymail flew towards Twinkle the Tooth Fairy's home.

In no time at all a beautiful gold fairy appeared. 'Hello, Harmony! Hello, Rhapsody,' smiled Twinkle the Tooth Fairy.

'Hello, Twinkle,' the two friends said together. 'It's so good to see you,' said Harmony. 'We have some special news. Lily, from the top of the garden, has a wobbly tooth.'

As the fairy friends were talking, they heard the twinkling of fairy bells. 'What a beautiful sound,' said Rhapsody. 'I wonder where it's coming from?' she said.

Twinkle knew the answer. 'They're fairy bells from my magical bracelet,' she explained. 'When a child loses a tooth, their name is spelt out on my magic bracelet. Lily's tooth must have fallen out because the letters now spell "Lily".'

It's time to swap Lily's tooth for a shiny coin, fairies. Do you want to come and keep me company while the girls fall asleep?' asked Twinkle.

'Yes, please!' said Harmony and Rhapsody.

The fairies all waved their wands and in a burst of stars they appeared at the top of the garden.

'Be careful not to lose your tooth, Lily,' said Emma. 'The Tooth Fairy will visit tonight to swap it for a shiny coin.'

'Don't worry, Emma, I'm going to put my tooth in a special box, right next to my bed,' said Lily. 'I can't wait to see if the Tooth Fairy really does come!'

That night, as the moon rose in the twinkling night sky, Emma and Lily snuggled into their beds. Evan though Lily was so excited she thought she would never sleep, it wasn't long before both girls were in the land of sleepy dreams.

'They both look so peaceful,' smiled Harmony. 'It's time,' whispered Twinkle and they all flew into the sleeping girls' bedroom.

Twinkle landed gently on the bedside table next to Lily, who was fast asleep, and swapped her tooth for a shiny coin. Harmony was very excited to think that Twinkle would now fly Lily's tooth into the sky where it would one day become a twinkling star!

'No wonder she's called Twinkle the Tooth Fairy!' giggled Rhapsody.

One they were safely back in the Snuggery, Harmony and Rhapsody, who were both exhausted, went straight to sleep. Twinkle, who was used to being awake at night was off to find a special place for Lily's tooth in the sky. 'Goodnight, fairies,' she whispered to her friends. 'Happy fairy dreams!'

The next day, Harmony and Rhapsody were both still sleeping, while in the top of the garden, Lily was wide awake. 'Emma, you were right!' she screamed in delight. 'The Tooth Fairy did come. My tooth is gone and there's a shiny coin!'

Emma was so happy for Lily she skipped off to her favourite place in the garden. 'Thank you, fairies, for making Lily's day so special,' she whispered.

Nearby, Twinkle was listening. 'That's my fairy pleasure,' she thought, then she flew home to sleep, ready for her next night-time adventure.
