Kitties on Dinosaurs by Michael Slack - OPTIONAL


Kitties on Dinosaurs
by Michael Slack,
 PICTURE BOOK Dial Books for Young Readers (Penguin Random House), 2020. $18. 978593108383 

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - OPTIONAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

3 little kittens who enjoy climbing are determined to climb the dinosaurs on Dinosaur Island. They build a submarine/invention lab and try one unsuccessful plan after another, eventually, success! But, it is short lived. 

Such a silly pairing - kittens and dinosaurs. I liked the different ideas for climbing the Dinos, and the hilarious illustrations - suburb - however, I didn't love the narrator as commentator, a bit unnecessary as the characters don't respond anyway, and the darling illustrations tell the story just fine.
