El ratoncito Pérez ( Pérez, the Little Mouse) is a legendary figure widely known among Spanish-speaking children, as well as in Spain. It's like your version of the tooth fairy in English-speaking places. When a child loses a tooth, they place it under their pillow while they sleep, and R. Pérez exchanges that tooth for a little gift or some coins.
Why does the little mouse Pérez want the teeth? Nobody knows...
