Secret Toothbrushes from the Valley of the Teeth

Marcel and Maja discover a magical toothbrush in their bathroom, and it whisks them into the mysterious Valley of the Teeth.

In a small town beyond the hills lived Marcel and his little sister, Maja. They loved adventure, but they did not love brushing their teeth. So when Mum called from the hallway, "Time to brush!" neither of them hurried very fast.

In the bathroom, something waited for them in the toothbrush cup. It was a toothbrush they had never seen before, with bright colours that seemed to shimmer in the light.

Marcel reached for it. The toothbrush gave a tiny flash and spoke in a cheerful voice, "Hello! My name is Brush. Do you dare to discover the secret of the Valley of the Teeth with me?" Maja stared. The tiles on the floor began to wobble, the sink spun like a merry-go-round, and then the bathroom vanished.

The children landed softly in a green meadow where giant tubes of toothpaste grew from the ground. Far away, shiny white mountains sparkled like sugar. Then a funny little monster called the Toothpaste popped out from behind a bush and ducked behind a huge tube, as if it were hiding.

Marcel and Maja stepped closer, clutching Brush tight. A deep voice floated over the meadow. "Only someone who truly cares for their teeth can cross the Magic Bridge!" The children looked up. Right in front of them stood a bridge made of thin, glimmering dental floss.
