Dory Fantasmagory: Head in the Clouds

A loose tooth leads to hilarious hijinks with the tooth fairy in book four of the wonderfully imaginative Dory Fantasmagory series Dory has her first loose tooth, and, with her usual over-the-top excitement, she cannot stop talking about the tooth fairy. Naturally, this drives her brother and sister crazy. But it also sparks a serious jealous streak in her nemesis, Mrs. Gobble Gracker, who wants all of Dory's attention to herself. But Mrs. Gobble Gracker has decided to steal the tooth fairy's job, and flying around in a tutu from Rosabelle, she heads for Dory's house. It's time for Dory to come up with a serious plan to get the tooth fairy her job back. The fourth installment in the wildly popular Dory Fantasmagory series delivers laughs on every page as Dory teams up with her pals, real and imaginary, to save the tooth fairy for all the world's children--and get her dollar! "Many series for fledgling readers feature mischievous girls and their grade-school exploits: Ramona Quimby, Junie B. Jones and Clementine, to name a few. Others, like the Magic Treehouse books, send children on fantasy adventures. Abby Hanlon’s marvelous Dory Fantasmagory series, featuring the plucky heroine Dory, also known as Rascal, combines the two." -- The New York Times

Chapter 1: Such a Bunchy Coat 

My name is Dory, but most people call me Rascal. I have an enemy named Mrs. Gobble Gracker—you might have heard of her. She has been trying to catch me and bring me to her cave. But today I have a problem that’s even bigger than Mrs. Gobble Gracker. It’s this coat. 

My mom says, “Oh! I just can’t stand how cute it is. It’s adorable on you.” 

“It’s bunchy,” I say. 

“It’s nice and cozy,” she says. 

“It’s all puffed up and bunchy!” I cry. 

“It’s a fabulous coat,” she says, kissing me.

“Oh, stop,” says my mom. “You are wearing it, Rascal. No matter what. It’s freezing out.” 

“PILLOWS! Bunchy pillows!”

“Stop saying pillows. You’re wearing it.” 

“You always make me wear bunchy pillows!!” 

“Come on, fluffball,” says my big brother, Luke. “We’re leaving. And stop saying bunchy!”

“Great coat, Kid!&rd…
