The dinosaur books by Yolen are great because they teach kids valuable lessons without sounding preachy. They get to see dinosaur kids behaving badly, and then the dinosaur kids learn how to do things right. Its also funny because the dinosaur kids have human parents, and another fun feature of the books is that on every page the correct name for that dinosaur is hidden and its fun to find it and try to sound it out with the kids.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0439241022, Hardcover)

How does a dinosaur eat all his food?Does he burp, does he belch, or make noises quite rude?Does he pick at his cereal, throw down his cup,hoping to make someone else pick it up? Just like kids, dinosaurs have a difficult time learning to behave at the table. However, with a little help from Mom and Dad, these young dinosaurs eat all before them with smiles and goodwill. As in their previous books, Yolen and Teague capture children's rambunctious natures with playful read-aloud verse and wonderfully amusing pictures.
