I Am NOT a Dinosaur!

32 pp. | Sterling | April, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4549-1491-4 $14.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jonny Lambert. Each of eleven creatures describes its particularities (e.g., "I look just like an elephant / with fur and tusks so elegant"), but all conclude with a chastening "I am not a dinosaur!" (The non-elephant is a woolly mammoth.) While enjoying the tight riddle-rhymes and cut-paper art imbuing each creature with personality, readers may not realize they're learning something. More about the creatures is appended. Timeline.
