Kimmie with the first print run of The Purple Dancing Triceratops
Kimmie Gotch is a stay-at-home mom of three who turns her kids' big imaginations into stories that help children feel brave enough to try new things. The Purple Dancing Triceratops is her debut children's book and was inspired by watching her own kids face those first steps onto the dance floor.
"Purple Dancing Triceratops by Kimmie Gotch is an absolute delight. The idea of a triceratops who loves to dance is so charming and delivers a sweet message about confidence, joy, and celebrating what makes you unique.
I love that the main character is a girl dinosaur. It is so important for young girls to see strong, fun, and confident female characters, even in dinosaur form. The rhythm of the text makes it perfect for reading aloud and the illustrations are full of life and movement. My daughter was completely captivated and even danced along.
Whether you are looking for a bedtime favorite or a story that inspires a little extra movement during the day, Purple Dancing Triceratops is a must have. Highly recommend adding it to your child's bookshelf."
