4) Teeth Everywhere

So what was this chapter about? Teeth. I never knew you could tell so much about teeth just by analyzing them. This chapter was fun to read especially with his constant jokes such as if we had mismatches between our upper and lower teeth, we would "enrich our dentists" and how reptiles are visited by the tooth fairy throughout their entire lifespan. That gave me a good laugh. And reading this, I could see how determined and dedicated he was at his job, digging up fossils and such, even looking to setup his own expedition. The only thing I must say I dislike about this chapter was towards the end, when he was describing the other organisms... it was a bit hard to understand and I got lost in a way. But overall, I could see what his point was in describing all that, with how everything is just versions of the same thing. And his chapter wrap up in the last paragraph was quite nice. Theme, he calls it... and I thought it only existed in English class.
