From the author of the best-selling Wicked, a transporting tale-within-a-tale about the strange world of skibbereen--aka tooth fairies--and the universal need to believe.Format: 5 CDs, Unabridged

It's the story of What-the-Dickens, a newly hatched orphan creature who finds he has an attraction to teeth, a crush on a cat named McCavity, and a penchant for getting into trouble. One day he happens upon a feisty girl skibberee who is working as an Agent of Change--trading coins for teeth--and learns that there is a dutiful tribe of skibbereen (call them tooth fairies) to which he hopes to belong. As his tale of discovery unfolds, however, both What-the-Dickens and Dinah come to see that the world is both richer and less sure than they ever imagined.NARRATED by Jason Culp
