The Mighty Bite
by Nathan Hale (Author)
From the New York Times bestselling cartoonist behind Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales comes a wacky graphic novel series!
What happens when a couple of prehistoric creatures want to become Internet stars? Trilobite and Amber (a walking whale) dream of fame and fortune. They don't realize that most of the world thinks that they're extinct. When a wandering paleo-newscaster introduces them to the world of internet videos, they hop at the chance to get behind the camera.
The competition for internet fame will be fierce--Trilobite and Amber will face off against ancient sea creatures, talking cacti, floating cat heads, and more! Friendships will be tested, allies will be made, and cameras will be smashed! Our heroes will have to use all of their newfound skills when they find themselves competing in an all-out video-making battle royale!
With laugh-out-loud gags and outrageous, elaborate artwork, fans of Dog Man and InvestiGators have never seen anything like Nathan Hale's The Mighty Bite--and will learn about some of the real-world science in the story.

Gr 3 Up--Trilobite and Amber are friends who should be extinct, but they're not. They'd like to be famous, but it's a while before they learn that they could become famous just by telling the world that they exist! When they discover how to become famous through internet videos, it seems like the answer to their problem. But the quest to create viral videos is just the beginning of a weird, hilarious, and surreal story. Trilobite and Amber become involved in a video-making competition for internet fame that becomes funnier and stranger the longer it goes on. The cast of characters is one of the most unique ever, including a trilobite who dreams of being rich and famous, an ambulocetus (or walking whale), a paleo-newscaster, an ape god, and many, many more. Hale uses only black, white, and pale blue colors, but each panel is packed with details. Plenty of squiggles and shading make the artwork look like it's vibrating off of the page. VERDICT For kids who enjoy zany, funny, and smart stories.--Andrea Lipinski
