Shea's rambunctious little red dino returns, this time getting ready for Christmas. Writing Santa a letter, decorating, making presents--Dinosaur triumphs in each small battle. The temptation of a gingerbread cookie almost bests him while he's "being extra good," but Dinosaur's greatest challenge is "falling asleep on Christmas Eve." The dynamic dino stands out amongst the bold holiday colors, thick lines, expressive type, and minimal mixed-media illustrations.
