My Teacher Is the Tooth Fairy by Tom Smith

My Teacher Is the Tooth Fairy by Tom Smith

Why was the home of a young couple with a seven-year-old boy invaded by the police, the house searched without a warrant, and the mother taken away in handcuffs with no explanation? How did Emmaline Raleigh, head of Raleigh Corp. and self-styled arbiter of class, end up forced to serve in a homeless shelter as partial repayment for the defamation of character and false arrest of her own unacknowledged daughter-in-law? Why was an ancient temple piece, the opposite of one being studied in the museum and a precious gift from her deceased husband, stolen from the Raleigh home? How did an intelligent and curious little boy happen to notice something, which he reported to a most unusual butler, that would ultimately free his mother? Who would have expected that the unusual combination of a young mother, her seven-year-old son, her retired and ill high-school teacher father, his butler turned companion, and the director of antiquities of the city museum would be instrumental in setting up an education program for homeless children as well as being the cause of the arrest of an international thief? Will these unusual occurrences lead to a mutually satisfactory end?

Smith, Mary: - Mary Smith started her life in Kansas City Missouri, on July 12 1930. It was the beginning of the great depression. Her young mother Mary, 25 years old died in child birth. Two of her siblings promised her that the little girl would be loved, cared for and given any and every opportunity available. Their word was gold. They took her to their homes in 'Tornado Alley', between Texhoma Texas and Liberal Kansas, on the Oklahoma Panhandle. It was the Dustbowl. Bleak, terrifying, and a killing field. My life has been full of love, remarkable living examples and the world (in that time period) was my oyster! My imagination and talents were encouraged and trained. So, my life's quilt, like Joseph's coat, is beautiful. It consists of the many colors and fabrics of this world from the most humble to the finest. I have been greatly blessed and want to share with each of you, the wonder of true goodness. Though my characters are fictional, I know and love every one of them. They are us-at our worst and at our best. Walk with me-and the Wet Walkers. Mary Smith lives in Santa Fe New Mexico with her two beloved Puli dogs. They are precious souls who, with their dredlocks, look mixed up... But don't we all?
