"The Not Quite Trilobite is a delightful blend of storytelling, science, and charm. The writing is superb, playful, engaging, and genuinely fun to read aloud, while the scientific details are woven in seamlessly, adding depth without ever feeling heavy-handed. The illustrations beautifully round out the story, with adorable visualizations that bring each character to life and add layers of personality and whimsy. This book manages to educate and enchant at the same time, making it a joy for both children and adults alike."

"If you are a teacher, you'll understand why I'm so excited! There's so much to do with this book! There's alliteration, there's rhyme, there's so much to compare and contrast! There are tons of rare words, plus book features like an illustrated glossary. This could be a fantastic anchor text to refer back to throughout the school year.

There's also a fantastic message about being confident in who you are!!

If you use a certain reading series that's broken into "Modules," this will fit right in to first grade's "creature features.

I can't wait to read this to my class!!"

"This is a perfect book for any child who is interested in paleontology. The book reads similar to Dr. Suess books with fun rhymes. The book is also very educational, with an appendix at the end filled with simple scientific information about all the critters in the book. Best of all is the message to love yourself as you are. I loved this book so much I bought two!"
