Fun and cute story about a toddler who does not want to have her teeth brushed at bedtime.
Bjarta has nice teeth, that can be used for lots of things. Now it is bedtime. Come and brush your teeth, Bjarta! But Bjarta is not in the mood to have her teeth brushed …
Bjarta’s parents try everything - they roar like bears, sing and count everything Bjarta ate that day. In the end Bjarta goes to bed with a smile.
This is the first book in a series about the fun and independent toddler Bjarta.
