Jason Alexander Writes Children's Book

Posted on March 1, 2005

Jason Alexander will be publishing a new picture book called Dad, Are You the Tooth Fairy? (Scholastic) in May of this year. The book is based on a conversation Alexander had with his son, Gabriel Apparently, Gabriel asked Jason Alexander a tricky Tooth Fairy question.

Alexander said in a statement, "This story is an example of the magic that can happen when parents are able to communicate positively with their children. My son wanted the truth, but he clearly didn't want something precious taken away from him. I was happily able to give him both, in a story that both conveyed a magical tale, but also demonstrated my love for him. Ultimately, I believe if you care for the hearts of your children, their heads will be just fine."
