(4) K-3 I Can Read Book series. Illustrated by Charles Grosvenor. Written by Bruce Hale. This new story features illustrations done "in the style of Syd Hoff." The dinosaur joins Danny and family for a beach day. They play in the water and sand and enter a sand-castle contest. The dinosaur accidentally wrecks Danny's castle but saves the day when high tide threatens the other entries. While tepid, this is better than previous follow-ups to Hoff's original stories.
