Illustrated by
Mike Lowery.
Asked by her teacher what she wants to be when she grows up, young black girl Sal replies she wants to become a Tyrannosaurus rex--and she does. Being a T. rex is as awesome as Sal thought it would be, but she learns that her T. rex ways are not always welcomed by her human loved ones. Amusing, comics-style illustrations are sure to spur the imaginations of young aspiring dinos.
