Review

This is an ideal book for the youngest picture book enthusiasts. It is all about dinosaurs. In fact, there is a dinosaur parade taking place. With rhyming text, colorful illustrations employing bold, broad strokes geared toward children aged 2 - 5, and endpapers depicting many different dinosaurs, the pronunciation of their names and interesting information about each one, this initiation to all things dinosaur is a good choice for children fascinated by dinosaurs. The love of dinosaurs, reptiles and the ilk seems ever ongoing and young readers seek them out on a regular basis.

Overall Book Score: very good
