“Thank you to Life is Dangerous! for inspiring the next generation of researchers. (…) At its best, nonfiction for children makes the facts seem like something close to magic. This is exactly what kind of book Life is Dangerous! is.”

“A feat of strength of international standard”
Øystein Runde, Empirix
“The amazing story of the evolution of life from bacteria to you is uncommonly vividly told. … Teaching geology and biology in school will never be the same after this book!”
Anne Cathrine Straume, NRK
“A tremendous journey through evolution. (…) exemplary imparting of knowledge for young as well as for adult readers. (…) While reading, I’m struck by how little I know, and how much I learn. Life is Dangerous! is a perfect book to read aloud. At the same time, the illustrations are so rich and entertaining in themselves that the book can be read over and over again. I believe, and hope, that it will evoke the love of reading and drawing in many children. (…) imparting of knowledge of international standard”
Erle Marie Sørheim, Aftenposten
“On the surface it’s about dinosaurs and lizards, but on the other hand, the subtext is about learning and motivation. The book is almost as much about the teaching method as what you learn.”
Egon Lågstad, Klassekampen
