The Dinosaurs' Night Before Christmas

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Nathan Hale. This book effectively speaks to two favorite childhood interests: dinosaurs and Christmas. Lilting rhymed text describes how a museum's dino fossils come to life for a Christmas Eve ball. Playful acrylic illustrations show the massive creatures, adorned in mistletoe and lights, rumbling through the museum's halls. A CD includes Al Roker reading the story and dinosaur-themed songs recorded to the tunes of carols.
