(2) K-3 Elephant & Piggie Like Reading! series. A turtle snoozes in front of a rock that reads, "Dinosaurs Do Not Scratch." With instant, uncompromising absorption of that message, and self-justification regarding the virtues of "toughness," a passing dinosaur kid spreads the word. A twist ending clarifies the message (somewhat). The easy reader's all-dialogue text and bubbly cartoon-style illustrations have kid appeal, and the implicit issues surrounding individuality and questioning authority are broached at a child-comprehending level.
