Dancing with the Dinosaurs

Dancing with the Dinosaurs
Jane Clarke
Illustrated by Lee Wildish
             
Have you ever seen a T. Rex dancing the tango or a Baryonyx dancing the rumba? Bold, bright pictures tell a funny story about a dinosaur dancing competition. The story begins with a list of all of the contestants, each with their correct scientific name. It features several different types of dinosaurs and their dance styles. The rhyming style of writing makes it an easy and enjoyable read. It ends on a funny note with the announcer trying to eat the contestants and judges. The illustrations are bright and colorful and fit well with the story. This book will appeal to any child, but the dinosaur lovers will enjoy it the most. The large print and easy-to-read words also make this a great book for beginning readers. Both of my children (ages 3 and 5) enjoyed the book. Their favorite part was the illustrations. It is a cute, fun little book that will be enjoyed for many years.
This book is for ages 2 to 5.

I received this book free of charge from Children's Literature in exchange for my honest review.
