A thought-provoking, informative, and unusual book, If a Dolphin Were a Fish is outstanding for family reading.”---National Center for the Study of Children’s Literature

What makes it particularly fun is that it reads like a story, but it throws LOTS of really good facts at you, too. This is an engaging picture book that will get kids involved in the ‘what-ifs’ and discerning information about life in the ocean.”---The Reading Tub
“In addition to having good science content and an emphasis on animal adaptations, the book also sends readers the message that it’s best to be yourself instead of trying to imitate others.”---NSTA Recommends
