Dino by Diego Vaisberg. PICTURE BOOK. Templar Books (Candlewick), 2018. $16. 9781536202809
BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
A large egg appears in the backyard of a family and it cracks to reveal a dinosaur. As the dinosaur grows it becomes more and more difficult to keep him, an yet they make it work. But what will the family do when they find more large eggs in their yard?
The illustrations are all red and blue and the story is pretty basic. This isn’t a bad book, but there isn’t anything terribly unique or interesting about it. There is one funny moment when the dinosaur scares everyone away, only to then be scared by a spider.
