Reviews
"While very highly recommended, especially for family, elementary school, and community library Social Issues picture book collections for children ages 5-7, it should be noted that Dazzling Travis is also available for personal reading lists in a paperback edition and in a digital book format." --Midwest Book Review
"This celebration of living one's best life features the first-person voice of Travis, a boy with a lot of flair: overall, the book succeeds in communicating the message promised in the subtitle." --Andrew Medlar, Booklist Reviewer
"In cheery rhymes, Dias introduces Travis, a boy who likes dressing as a knight as much as dancing ballet. Like Travis, his friends' personalities shine through their non gendered clothing and the toys they choose. Dias offers little nuance in favor of a straightforward message about embracing individuality, defying stereotypes, and standing up against bullies." --Publisher's Weekly​
"This celebration of one's best life features the first person voice of Travis, a boy with a lot of flair...The book succeeds in communicating the message promised in the subtitle." --Booklist
"Inspired by the true story of a boy struggling to fit in at school, the book's rhymes and colorful illustrations, along with a handful of mini biographies of famous iconoclasts, encourage children to embrace uniqueness and diversity." --Foreword Reviews

"The book succeeds in communicating the message promised in the subtitle." --American Librarian Association
