Alan's Big, Scary Teeth Read Free Books and Download eBooks
A goofy and lonely denizen of the jungle has just one talent — scaring other creatures with his big, scary teeth! What would he do without them?Deep in the jungle lurks Alan the alligator, descended from a long line of very scary alligators. He prepares carefully — polishing his scales, brushing each of his big, scary teeth, and practicing his frightening faces — then sneaks into the jungle to terrorize the jungle critters. ("I’m big, scary Alan! Fear my razor-sharp teeth!") But after a long day of scaring, Alan likes nothing better than to enjoy the crossword, run a warm mud bath, and take out his teeth, which nobody else knows are false. Until one morning, when Alan wakes up and finds that his teeth are gone! Without those teeth, he’s just not very scary, and scaring is the only thing he knows how to do. Or is it? Witty, charming, and playful storytelling will have preschoolers cheering for Alan as he discovers a new way to fit in.

My three-year-old loves this book! He enjoys having it read to him. It's a fun, colorful, and engaging story. The illustrations are cute and the characters are amusing! Overall, this is a very entertaining and enjoyable book. Highly recommend!
This is a lovely book that should entertain the children in your life as well as the adults who read it to them! Alan is an alligator who loves nothing more than to tromp through the jungle scaring everyone with his big! scary! teeth. All the other animals are afraid of him....until they discover his deep dark secret - the big scary teeth are big FALSE teeth! Alan won't get his teeth back until he can come to an agreement with all the inhabitants of his jungle. A great book with a message about conflict resolution, with amusing pictures and a good story.
Adorable. My 3yo nephew loves animals, and I thought this alligator book would be fun. The "surprise" in the book is hysterical and he giggles endlessly time after time. Great book.
We got this book from the library and my two 5-year-olds LOVE it! Cute illustrations and a fun story. We have read it several times, and I plan on purchasing a copy now.
My two-year old grandson thinks this is the greatest book in the world. His twin sister is amused, but not captivated, so I averaged to a 4 star review.
