“Persistence is a staple theme in picture books, but it’s a treat to read one that goes beyond ‘I did it!’ to ‘I did it for others.’” —Booklist
“Katzenberger makes Banting’s work on insulin relatable and exciting, helping young readers connect with both the science and the human story behind the discovery.” —BeyondType1
