Too Many Dinosaurs

32 pp. | Holiday | September, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8234-2316-3 $16.95
(4) K-3 When Mom vetoes a puppy, the narrator buys a tag-sale dinosaur egg. It hatches with disastrous results; by the end of the story, the puppy seems like a good option, so Mom buys one. Effective comic pacing and colorful illustrations with an engaging mixture of fantasy and reality help bolster the familiar story line.
