interesting history of the tooth fairy

I found this book fun to read because it gave a nonfiction history of the tooth fairy that also included many tooth traditions. I disagree that this book was not a narrative. Quite the reverse, TOOTH TALES had a running story line while the other tooth book mentioned provided a single caption per picture per site around the world. These are two different books that offer two different versions of tooth tradition. I do agree that the title TOOTH TALES FROM AROUND THE WORLD is misleading, but I didn't find this book to be about witchcraft, which seems to be the other reviewers realk concern.
