If You Give a T-Rex a Bone

What if you could be transported back to the time of the dinosaurs and other ancient beasts? It would be interesting--DANGEROUSLY interesting!

What kid does not love a book about dinosaurs? This one takes the format of a children's classic (If You Give a Mouse a Cookie) and combines it with humor and facts about Dinosaurs. "If you give a T.rex a bone, he's gonna be mad". The story itself is slim, the real standouts are the dinosaur facts. The illustrations use bright watercolors tinged with black, to create the jungle-like feel of the environment. Kids from Grades 2 to 4 will enjoy the humor and learning about their favorite pre-historic monsters, and they'll appreciate the lists of dinosaurs, similar books and website suggestions at the end.

Love this book! Similar to 'If You Give a Mouse a Cookie' books. Highlights many dinosaurs that are not as well known, and has many cool resourses at the end. ( )
