What the Dickens?

So I just finished reading "What the Dickens?" by Gregory Maguire. I liked it. The book is about an orphaned tooth fairy who takes a stand against the backward conventions of tooth fairy society. It's a fantastic idea and premise actually, but Maguire doesn't follow through. I do appreciate the messages it sends to the youth it is aimed at though.

Stand up for yourself, strive to learn, go outside your comfort zone.
