In the beginning, there is an egg. Which may become a baby bird, except if it becomes a baby snake instead. Except if the baby snake is really truly a dinosaur!

In this clever and whimsical picture book in the spirit of Not a Box and First the Egg, an egg is not just an egg, but a symbol of the boundless potential of a child’s imagination. As each image melds smoothly but unexpectedly into the next, readers are invited to stretch the limits of their minds. Great for reading aloud and attractively packaged and priced, Except If will appeal to even the youngest picture book reader.

Industry Reviews

"Averbeck plays contrarian in this fun exercise that defies narrative assumption.... It’s a concept that starts cleverly and then, almost sneakily, warms the heart."
