Tooth Fairy Resigns

The Tooth Fairy may be resigning! Here's Francesca Simon, author of Horrid Henry, telling the beginning of the story.

Francesca's tale is also featured on the inside wrapper of the Milk Tooth Chocolate bar from Hoxton Street Monster Supplies. It's a smooth milk chocolate with delicious chunks of delicately roasted milk teeth (a really monstrous treat).

If you know a young writer, maybe they could come up with the ending? If they send their story to [email protected] by 31 December 2014 they'll be entered into a prize draw to win 30 bars of Milk Tooth Chocolate (enough for a whole class of little monsters!)
