When it sees the sprinkles, stars, and gumdrops adorning other cookies, a fresh-baked dinosaur cookie demands better than "gloppy green frosting and this stupid hat." But many decorating "do overs" don't satisfy the dino, and Cookiesaurus Rex is still complaining at book's end. The silly story is enhanced by lively illustrations, which maintain a close-up cookie's eye view with only glimpses of a human decorator's hand.
