tiny soft bristles.

One little mouth
stayed closed.

waited too.

Then one tooth
peeked out.

Hello, tooth.

Time to brush.

Tap the toothbrush to brush the little teeth.

Tap once to brush. Tap again to make the toothbrush still.

Not fast.

Not pokey.

Soft.

Slow.

Round and round.

Brush brush.

The front teeth woke up.

Hello, front teeth.

The side teeth woke up.

Hello, side teeth.

The back teeth hid.

Cheek went puff.

Brush went in.

Just a little.

Brush brush.

One bubble came.

Pop.

Two bubbles came.

Pop pop.

The sleepy tooth
opened one eye.

“Again?” said tooth.

Again.

Tap the mirror to make the tooth sparkle.

Tap once to sparkle. Tap again to make it quiet.

The toothbrush went
round the top.

Round the bottom.

Round the back.

beside the sink.

Little mouth closed.

Then smiled.

One clean tooth
shone in the mirror.

Sparkle.

Another tooth shone.

Sparkle sparkle.

The bathroom was quiet.

The toothbrush stood
in the cup.

Ready for tomorrow.
