A playful story with a surprise twist about being whoever
– or whatever – you want.
Our Thoughts:
This is such a fun book. My son loves dinosaurs, so I
knew he would love this book as well – I was right.
The little boy in this book wants so badly to be a
dinosaur. To his surprise, a big dinosaur shows up and shows him how to roar,
stomp, and eat just like a dinosaur. But then the boy discovers all the things
he enjoys doing that dinosaurs don’t do – pizza, soccer, video games, and more.
As it turns out, being a little boy is just as exciting
as being a big dinosaur. The two of them figure out they can have fun just
being themselves.
I loved that my son loved this book so much. I also
appreciate the message of being happy with being exactly who you are. A lesson
all kids need to learn.
