TEETH AND RATS 2019-09-08 / ILLUSTRATIONS BY THE HALF DOZEN / childhood, coin, milk, milk tooth, rat, tooth / By CorchoGrendel Milk teeth are beautiful things that count the days left until childhood comes to an end. It is said that when one of those deciduous teeth falls, a rat comes to buy it with some coins. And that is the inspiration behind these illustrations. Loose teeth. Money for my childhood. Only milk teeth have worth. Only childhood matters. Maybe drinking milk will regrow those teeth. The last coin. I don't want these useless teeth. Made with teeth, with love.
