Inspired by a true story. Jesse loses a tooth on the first night of Passover. The Tooth Fairy arrives as expected, only to find that Eliyahu the Jewish prophet has also dropped in for his traditional sip of wine. Neither visitor anticipates the other, and what begins as a simple scheduling collision quickly turns into a whirlwind of hilarious antics that threaten to wake Jesse’s sleeping household. As these legendary figures pursue their respective missions, they form a partnership. The story delivers a gentle yet powerful message about hope and how different traditions can work side by side to create a little magic. The glossary provides definitions of Yiddish and Hebrew words in the story and Passover terminology.
