Will have readers recognizing that they, too, can be their own unique ME-osauruses.” <b>—<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b></p><p>“This tale of individuality championed and rewarded wears its message lightly, with gentle-hued pencil, watercolor, and digital illustrations portraying two communities full of adorable animals—all trying to do right by their friend.” <b>—<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b></p><p>“With a delightfully expressive amphibious protagonist, Adamson’s story shares what it means to stay true to oneself even in the face of other people’s (or creature’s) demands. The mixed media of the spring color palette of watercolor and thin pencil textures creates an exuberant atmosphere for Brian and his friends to nurture their imagination…” <b>—<i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</i></b></p><p>“An original and fun picture book about frogs, dinosaurs, and peer pressure.
