“She was kid friendly. She kept the 2-year-olds attention. My students are 4 and they loved her book. She brought materials for the children to have hands-on experience. She asked questions throughout the book. All the teachers thought she was awesome with the students.”

“The American Student Dental Association chapter at UCSF School of Dentistry would love to thank author LaTonya Butler for allowing us to add her book to our school's first ever virtual library open to all, focused on dental education for children. Such an informative and sweet read for your kids who may feel a little nervous for a dental visit! We love that this was written by a dental professional and is both entertaining and informative with absolutely beautiful illustrations! Thank you so much!!”
