Editorial Reviews

Review

"Peter's Rockin' Ear: A Story of Self-Acceptance has earned the prestigious Mom's Choice Award(R). Having been rigorously evaluated by a panel of MCA evaluators, Peter's Rockin' Ear is deemed to be among the best picture books for families." MCA Press Release

"It was a humbling experience to discover that Dede based the story on Peter Dankelson, her eldest son, who was diagnosed with Goldenhar syndrome. Dankelson is a talented musician and the lifeline behind this inspirational book. Dede astutely highlighted Peter's struggles as he tried to fit in with his peers. In Chatterjee's illustrations, the facial expressions and body language were so lifelike that I could read every emotion the characters felt. Peter's Rockin' Ear is an empowering book that will teach it's young audience the value of self-acceptance." - Shrabastee Chakraborty, 5-Star Readers' Favorite

"Peter's Rockin' Ear receives honors in the Book Excellence International Book Awards competition that recognizes books for their high quality design, writing, and overall market appeal." 2023 Winners Panel
