This picture book, I Lost My Tooth, is one of simplicity with deep meaning. It is with minimal and predictable text. The main character 'Walrus' makes a perfect subject as his two long teeth are so notable in defining his character. Multiple other characters within the mammalian family cry out, proclaiming they too have lost a tooth. The stress of loss is resolved, and hope is restored to all other animals when 'Walrus' grows a second replacement tooth (as most mammals do). The black and white illustrations are bold, simple, loveable, and memorable. The backgrounds, foregrounds, and inner text are painted with a toothbrush using various techniques. This book is a great beginner reader book and cathartic to a child’s emotions around the loss of a tooth as well as their empathy and connection to the animal world. *The character 'Walrus' appears in another book titled, 'Walrus, Will You Hang With Me?'.
