New Book by Marble Cartoonist

"Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!"

Treesock Press

(Marble)- Who knows more about the Tooth Fairy than local cartoonist Jerry Begly? He's the father of seven children, and a kid's ski instructor at Snowmass ski area.

In his new picture book, "Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!", Jerry captures the perfect "Oh no!" moment all parents face: forgetting to exchange money for teeth. To make matters worse, the Tooth Fairy really starts missing deliveries when the family begins growing. The result? Tie-on Tooth Fairy wings, a mountain of teeth in the living room (complete with ski lift and a train), and a mysterious "hero" who will win your heart and mind.

"Dad, the ''Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!" is 48 pages of wacky cartoons that were put together at Jerry's Marble home using on-site solar and wind power. "I think this is the first childrens's book with that distinction," said Jerry from his art studio that sits off the grid and has a commanding view of the Marble valley.

"Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!" debuted February, 2010, and copies have already made their way to England, Brazil, Canada, and China, as well as from coast to coast in the U.S.

A graduate of Colorado Mountain College, Jerry Begly has been a freelance cartoonist in the Roaring Fork Valley for several years. His cartoons have appeared in numerous books, newspapers, and trade publications, as well as pop culture items like t-shirts and hats.

News staff interested in reviewing the book, or interviewing Jerry, can receive a complimentary copy by contacting Jerry Begly at 970-963-3815, or emailing him at jerry@jerrybegly.com .

"Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!" is available for purchase at www.jerrybegly.com/book , and is a production of Treesock Press.

Announcing my new book, "Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!"

By Jerry Begly on February 14, 2010 7:39 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks

Who knows better how to write  a book  about "Tooth Fairy Malfunction", than a father with seven kids? That's Jerry Begly, father of  seven, and children's ski instructor for the Aspen Skiing Company at Snowmass Ski Area.

"Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!" hit the streets on February 9, 2010, and has already knocked the socks off of people from Brazil, to the United States, to the U.K., and many points in between.  

The first printing sold out in less than 5 days,  and the second edition is going to press this week! How did that happen? Two ways: 1. We used our many contacts here in the U.S. and in other countries to pre-sell the book. 2. The book is so much fun that it sells itself.  As a matter of fact, several customers ordered multiple copies of the first printing, and some customers are coming back  to order even more books from the upcoming second edition.                            

This is one crazy book.  There's nothing out there even close to it.  It could be called a "comedy manual for parents", but this book was written for kids! The cool thing about the book "Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!" is that it is written on multiple levels. Kids will love the cartoons done in stunningly brilliant colors, the wacky storyline, and the  unusual antics of the "hero" of the book.  Parents, grandparents, and babysitters will love the jokes that only an adult can understand. 

Every time you read this book, you're going to  see something new taking place on the pages. This book will delight both adults and children as it is read again and again. (One parent claims to have already read it 16 times to their child, and then bought 5 books to give as gifts!)

Here's the premise of the book: When there was only one child in the family, the Tooth Fairy used to leave money for teeth all of the time.  As the family grows, the Tooth Fairy starts missing deliveries, with hilarious results.  When our "hero" steps in to save the day, things spiral out of control. The surprise ending only adds to the world of  mystery, intrigue, and tie-on Tooth Fairy wings.

Reserve your copy of "Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn't Come!" now!  The second edition is sure to go fast, and the collectible nature of the early editions is already being recognized by many individuals.
