🌿 Spike’s Favorite Things
- Munching low-to-the-ground ferns (yum!)
- Warming up in sunny meadows
- Comparing features with other dino friends
- Practicing my “turn sideways and look big” move
- Telling stories about how I swish my thagomizer tail

I’m Spike, a young and curious Stegosaurus with the most incredible set of plates you’ve ever seen! My warm olive-grey body and cool khaki belly are pretty awesome—but it’s my colorful, changing plates that make me stand out in the prehistoric crowd.
Wanna know a secret? My back plates change color depending on how I feel and how warm I am. Pretty cool, right? When I’m warm, they turn a deep rusty red, and when I’m cool, they shift back to pale sage. It’s like having built-in mood rings!
I may be a dino, but I’ve got big life lessons to share!
My story helps kids:
“My mom says my plates aren’t just cool—they make me brave, unique, and safe.”
