Day 55
What an interesting trail I've been on this afternoon. I received a text with a photo of one of my grandsons with a missing tooth -- he lost his first tooth! So, curious me . . . I searched on the Internet to see if there is an Italian Tooth Fairy. To my surprise not only did I find the Italian Tooth Fairy, but I also found her helper, Topolino! So this is my topic and exercise for my blog.
Ascolta Questo:
Italians could not choose between the Tooth Fairy and the Tooth Mouse.
|
Gli italiani non potevano scegliere tra la fatina dei denti e il topino di dente.
|
In Italy the Tooth Fairy has a helper, Topolino dei denti, a little mouse.
|
In Italia la fatina dei denti ha un aiutante, topino dei denti, un piccolo topo.
|
He lives in a royal palace and takes care of the baby teeth of children around the world.
|
Vive in un palazzo reale e si prende cura dei denti da latte dei bambini del mondo.
|
Saint Apollonia is the patron saint of teeth, and it is said she has a chariot made of teeth and pulled by mice.
|
Sant' Apollonia รจ la patrona dei denti, e si dice abbia un carro fatto di denti e trainato da topi.
|
Does anyone know of a storybook about Topolino in Italian?
