Paperback. My Teeth and MeA Gentle Story About Self-Soothing, Body Awareness, and Feeling Brave - Wren's First Visit to the DentistFor many young children, a first trip to the dentist is the first time they're asked to sit still, open wide, and trust a stranger with something as personal as their own mouth - all under bright lights, in a chair that tips back further than any chair at home. It's no wonder so many small bodies respond with a twisty tummy, a racing heart, or a flat "I don't want to go."My Teeth and Me follows Wren, a little girl who feels exactly that way, through the week leading up to her appointment. Rather than rushing her fear away or promising her there's "nothing to be scared of," Wren's mama does something different: she helps Wren build a small toolkit of calming helpers, one at a time, so that by appointment day, Wren isn't walking into the unknown empty-handed.Each day of the week before her appointment, Wren learns a new tool: A secret toe wiggle only Wren can feel - a private, invisible way to feel grounded, even mid-appointment.A playful "statue" game that turns sitting still into something she chooses, rather than something done to her.A quiet raised-palm signal that lets her ask for a pause, and know she'll be heard.A gentle hand squeeze - a tiny, portable hug she can carry anywhere, no equipment needed.By the time Wren climbs into the dentist's chair, she isn't facing the unknown for the first time - she has real, practiced ways to meet her fear, and she uses every one of them, one tooth at a time.Written in warm, rhyming verse and paired with embedded caregiver prompts on nearly every page, this story is designed to be read with a child, not just to them. Grown-ups are invited to practice each technique together in the days before their own child's appointment, so the tools feel familiar rather than brand new in the moment that matters most - whether that's a dentist's chair, a doctor's office, or any new experience that brings on big feelings.Being brave was never about not feeling scared. It's about feeling the fear fully, and still knowing what to do - and having somewhere for that feeling to go.That's the gentle reframe at the heart of this book, offered not as a lecture but as something Wren discovers for herself, page by page, helper by helper.Inside, you'll also find: A short "Author's Note for Grown-Ups" explaining the thinking behind each calming technique.A parenting guide with practical tips for before, during, and after the appointment.Caregiver prompts woven into the story, so the book doubles as a hands-on practice guide, not just a read-aloud.My Teeth and Me is part of the Little Helpers series - gentle stories for big feelings, each one built around a real moment young children face (a first appointment, a new sibling, a big night out) and a small, practiced toolkit of self-regulation tools they can carry into it.A tender, practical companion for any child facing something new, and a lovely way to turn dentist-visit dread into a shared ritual of confidence-building long before the appointment ever begins.Perfect for: Children ages 3-5 preparing for a first or difficult dentist visitParents and caregivers looking for calm, practical tools for anxious momentsPreschool and kindergarten classrooms building emotional regulation skillsAnyone who wants a gentle, rhyming bedtime story with real substanceAges 3-5.

My Teeth and Me
A Gentle Story About Self-Soothing, Body Awareness, and Feeling Brave — Wren's First Visit to the Dentist
For many young children, a first trip to the dentist is the first time they're asked to sit still, open wide, and trust a stranger with something as personal as their own mouth — all under bright lights, in a chair that tips back further than any chair at home. It's no wonder so many small bodies respond with a twisty tummy, a racing heart, or a flat "I don't want to go."
My Teeth and Me follows Wren, a little girl who feels exactly that way, through the week leading up to her appointment. Rather than rushing her fear away or promising her there's "nothing to be scared of," Wren's mama does something different: she helps Wren build a small toolkit of calming helpers, one at a time, so that by appointment day, Wren isn't walking into the unknown empty-handed.
Each day of the week before her appointment, Wren learns a new tool:
- A secret toe wiggle only Wren can feel — a private, invisible way to feel grounded, even mid-appointment.
- A playful "statue" game that turns sitting still into something she chooses, rather than something done to her.
- A quiet raised-palm signal that lets her ask for a pause, and know she'll be heard.
- A gentle hand squeeze — a tiny, portable hug she can carry anywhere, no equipment needed.
By the time Wren climbs into the dentist's chair, she isn't facing the unknown for the first time — she has real, practiced ways to meet her fear, and she uses every one of them, one tooth at a time.
Written in warm, rhyming verse and paired with embedded caregiver prompts on nearly every page, this story is designed to be read with a child, not just to them. Grown-ups are invited to practice each technique together in the days before their own child's appointment, so the tools feel familiar rather than brand new in the moment that matters most — whether that's a dentist's chair, a doctor's office, or any new experience that brings on big feelings.
Being brave was never about not feeling scared. It's about feeling the fear fully, and still knowing what to do — and having somewhere for that feeling to go.
That's the gentle reframe at the heart of this book, offered not as a lecture but as something Wren discovers for herself, page by page, helper by helper.
Inside, you'll also find:
- A short "Author's Note for Grown-Ups" explaining the thinking behind each calming technique.
- A parenting guide with practical tips for before, during, and after the appointment.
- Caregiver prompts woven into the story, so the book doubles as a hands-on practice guide, not just a read-aloud.
My Teeth and Me is part of the Little Helpers series — gentle stories for big feelings, each one built around a real moment young children face (a first appointment, a new sibling, a big night out) and a small, practiced toolkit of self-regulation tools they can carry into it.
A tender, practical companion for any child facing something new, and a lovely way to turn dentist-visit dread into a shared ritual of confidence-building long before the appointment ever begins.
Perfect for:
- Children ages 3–5 preparing for a first or difficult dentist visit
- Parents and caregivers looking for calm, practical tools for anxious moments
- Preschool and kindergarten classrooms building emotional regulation skills
- Anyone who wants a gentle, rhyming bedtime story with real substance
Ages 3–5.
