Lund, Deb
Dinosoaring Illustrated by
Howard Fine Harcourt Children’s
Books, 2012. $16.99 PICTURE BOOK Content: G.
In
this colorful children’s book a group of dinosaurs load themselves into a large
airplane and try to take for the skies.
At first they can’t get the plane of the ground because they all weigh
too much, but with some effort they get the plane into the air. While flying they see an airshow in
progress and so they decide to participate by doing air stunts. The dinosaurs get very dizzy from their
air tricks and they parachute to the ground. They kiss the ground and then begin looking for their next
adventure.
The illustrations are
colorful and fun, especially for kids who like both airplanes and
dinosaurs. The storyline rhymes,
which makes it a fun read-aloud.
The front and back cover label the correct names of the different
dinosaurs depicted throughout the book.
Overall this is a good book for kids who like the subjects of flying and
dinosaurs, but the story wasn’t anything great.
EL (K-3)-OPTIONAL.
Reviewer, C. Peterson.
