This was fun. It was so much fun we read it twice, and I suspect we'll be reading it again in the morning. Why don't dinosaurs make good pets? Read this book and you'll find out! You will also find out that Gideon Kendall is a lovely illustrator, and Lynn Plourde has a sense of humor. Nice little appendix as well. ( )

This is a great book for those children who love palaeobios.

Cute book for kids who are Dino lovers. ( )

"This sumple story is told in rhyming couplets that don't always scan well, and the rhymes are occasionally stretched...The highlight of the tale is the skillfully rendered and entertaining double-page artwork....Despite the test's uneven cadence, the subject matter and humorous art will appeal to children."
