Dino Pets Go to School

Lynn Plourde

Dutton Children's Books, 2011 - Juvenile Fiction - 32 pages

One little boy knows just what to bring to school on Pet Day: dinosaurs, of course! But his first dino is too tall for the school bus; the next is a bit too loud for class; and the third is too spiky for one unlucky soccer ball. The search for the perfect classroom dinosaur kicks off a prehistoric pet parade . . . and school will never be the same!

With bouncy text, strikingly bold illustrations, and a section of fun facts about the amazing Jurassic giants, this perfect read-aloud is as educational as it is silly and satisfying.
