It's the perfect moment to start the tooth fairy tradition. The Night of My First Tooth, the personalised book from Real Big Stories, tells the story of that very night with your child as the hero: the tooth fairy wakes them up in secret, whisks them away to visit her tooth workshop, and their own tooth becomes a shining star.

For ages 3 to 8 — from the first wobbly tooth to the very last baby tooth. If your child no longer believes in the tooth fairy, the book's magic won't quite land.

« Camille lost her first tooth in June. We read the book that very same evening. She slipped her tooth under the pillow with the utmost seriousness. She did it all by herself, just like in the story. »

The Tooth Fairy isn't a gimmick. She's a tradition passed down through generations, tied to a precise moment in childhood that stays with you forever. Our creative team writes every book with a clear conviction: what we keep, what we leave out — that's what separates a story that matters from a throwaway keepsake.

We protect the wonder. We avoid commercial staging. And above all, we keep the night magical — never frightening, never stripped of its meaning.

, on every copy of The Night of My First Tooth.

What we do

  • An emotional arc of anticipation → doubt → wonder, felt rather than stated
  • A Tooth Fairy who is gentle, discreet, almost shy — never a cartoon
  • The tender ritual of slipping the tooth under the pillow, handled with gentle solemnity
  • A conspiratorial night scene, wrapped in warm golden light and deep midnight blue
  • An ending that closes like a soft door — the memory made into something you can hold

What we won't do

  • The tooth fairy drawn as a caricature with sharp teeth or an unsettling expression
  • Any scene depicting a painful or graphic tooth loss
  • A transactional tone around the coin left in exchange
  • Breaking the magic (a parent shown playing the role of the tooth fairy)
  • A night portrayed as dark or frightening

A tooth tucked carefully under the pillow, and the Tooth Fairy slipping in without a sound: this moment only happens once. This book captures it forever, from your child's point of view, with all the wonder of a tradition worth keeping.

Some nights stay with you forever. The first time a baby tooth falls out, tucked under the pillow with the utmost solemnity, while a tiny, quiet visitor comes to write the next chapter for you. The Night of My First Tooth is the personalized first lost tooth book that captures this moment, with your child as the hero.

The Tooth Fairy ritual unfolds at your child's level. The tooth that's been wobbling for days, the small treasure carefully wrapped, the tender bedtime moment — slipping that tooth under the pillow with a heart beating just a little faster. Our creative team writes every personalized Tooth Fairy book around this precise arc: anticipation, wonder, and delight. No commercial staging, no cartoon fairy. Just the legend, honoured.

This first lost tooth gift sits alongside the first pair of shoes and the first curl of hair, in the box where you keep the things that can never be replaced. Your child's name is woven into the story, and a photo of their face guides our illustrators so it's *them* — not some generic child — who discovers the Tooth Fairy's secret workshop beneath the roots of an old oak tree.

  • Your child illustrated in their pajamas, tooth in hand or tucked under their pillow, in the golden warmth of their bedroom
  • The Tooth Fairy drawn with care — thimble-sized, red velvet pouch, gentle expression
  • A4 landscape format (29.7 × 21 cm), hardcover available for ages 3–5 and 6–8
  • 28 or 48 pages depending on the edition chosen
  • Five story scenarios: the first time, the secret workshop, the stubborn tooth, the special meeting, the last baby tooth
  • Express delivery in 7 days, or a PDF in 24 hours for last-minute orders

Before the tooth falls out, it's an anticipation book that plants the magic in their imagination the moment a tooth starts to wiggle. On the night itself, it's the Tooth Fairy tradition book you read together, just before that special bedtime ritual. As a birthday gift around ages 5–6, it's an object that waits patiently on the shelf for exactly the right moment.

Giving The Night of My First Tooth means giving your child a legend told at the exact moment they're living it. For any questions before ordering, write to us at hello@realbigstories.com — we read every message.

  2. A tickle of whiskers — the fairy is there, and she takes [Name], now tiny, all the way to her workshop.
  3. Their tooth becomes a little star. In the morning, a sparkling surprise — and [Name] knows exactly where teeth go.

For every book, our creative team selects the arc that best captures your duo — the one you'll recognise the moment you read it together.

№ 05 · FAQs

The most common questions about The Night of My First Tooth — answered honestly, with nothing left out.

Should I order the book before or after my child loses their first tooth?

Either works perfectly. Before the tooth falls out, it's an anticipation book that prepares your child for the ritual and plants the magic in their imagination — ideal as soon as a tooth starts to wiggle. After the tooth falls, it becomes a keepsake you read together that same evening or in the days that follow, something to treasure alongside the tooth itself. Most parents order when that first tooth starts to wobble, so the book arrives right on time.

My child no longer believes in the Tooth Fairy — can the book still work?

Absolutely — and it can actually be the perfect moment. For older children who are doubtful or already in the know, the book becomes a tender piece of tradition: keeping the legend alive for the memory, not the belief. Our 6–8 age version can be read as a memory book of an iconic childhood moment, rather than an active believer's story. It's often at this stage that the book means the most.

How is the Tooth Fairy depicted in the book?

As a gentle, discreet little creature — barely bigger than a thimble — carrying a small red velvet pouch where she keeps her collected teeth. Never comical, never scary. She doesn't speak; she communicates through glances and quiet gestures. Our illustrators work to keep her true to the classic tradition: shy, almost elusive, and sharing a special secret with the child who dares to look.

What are the delivery times?

Our express delivery takes 7 days within mainland UK — the safe option if you need the book by a specific date. Standard delivery takes 10 to 15 working days when there's no rush. In a real hurry? The digital version (PDF) is ready within 24 hours of your order being confirmed. For international deliveries, allow extra time depending on the destination. You'll receive a tracking number by email as soon as your order ships. Any questions? Drop us a line at hello@realbigstories.com.

What size is the book, and how many pages does it have?

The book is A4 landscape format (29.7 × 21 cm when closed) — perfect for reading together side by side or laying flat on a table. The standard version has 10 illustrated chapters, plus an introduction and conclusion, coming to around 28 pages in total. The long version is nearly twice that, with 20 chapters and roughly 48 pages. Each chapter features a full-page illustration paired with text tailored to your child's age.

What's the print and paper quality like?

Printed on thick, premium matte paper. The hardcover is sturdy and the same high quality across all age ranges. The binding is sewn and glued to last — this is a book built to be read a hundred times, not to gather dust at the back of a drawer.

Can I make changes after placing my order?

Yes — as long as your book hasn't gone to print yet, which is usually within the first few hours after ordering. Get in touch as quickly as possible at hello@realbigstories.com with your order number and the change you need (a misspelled name, a photo to swap, a character to adjust). Once printing has started, we're unable to make any further changes.

What if I'm not happy with the result?

If something isn't right — a printing defect, a quality issue, or an illustration that doesn't look like your child — contact us as soon as possible after receiving your order at hello@realbigstories.com. We'll either reprint or give you a full refund, no questions asked. It doesn't happen often, but when it does, we make it right.

Are my photos and personal data safe?

Yes — your photos are only used to create the book. They're never shared, never used for anything else, and they're deleted from our servers on request. All our providers (payment, hosting, printing) are GDPR compliant.

How much can I personalize the book?

Far beyond just the name. Your child's face is illustrated from your photos, and appears on every page. You also choose the story world, the plot, the characters around them (family, friends, pet) and the little details of appearance. The book stays fully editable until you approve the preview: you read through the text, request any changes, and printing only starts once you're happy.
