I read Grandpa's Teeth for my short story book.  This book is about a Grandfather who loses his teeth.  The family calls detectives and police to investigate.  There is no sign of his teeth and everyone is a suspect to him.  Then the whole town is smiling because they don't want to go to jail!  Finally the Mayor has a meeting and says that a smiling town that isn't happy can't go on any longer.  So the town has a fund where everyone puts in a dollar so Grandpa can afford his teeth.  In the end Grandpa's dog was wearing them the whole time!  This book is a very unrealistic but funny book.

Grandpa has hand carved teeth from one of the finest Swiss craftsmen.  But he loses the teeth and he thinks someone has stolen them.  He does not know who has taken them.  At the end of the book the mayor gets him a new pair from the Swiss craftsman and he never misplaces them again.  I would recommend this book to children in 2nd or 3rd grade who like mysteries and humor.
