Tales of the Tooth Fairies (French: Souris Souris) is a children's television programme created by Françoise Caspan. It was co-produced by Siriol Productions, La Fabrique, EVA Entertainment, Cologne Cartoon, and Sofidoc S.A. for WDR and France 3. In the United Kingdom, it was aired on BBC One from 7 September until 14 December 1993, along with Noddy's Toyland Adventures and BBC Two on 20 October 1994.[1]
In the series, Gisele and Martin are "tooth mice": mice who perform the duties of tooth fairies. When a child in need loses a milk tooth, the two mice (assisted by their friend Arthur), retrieve the tooth and give the child a fitting gift. This they do on orders from their Queen Elisa.
