With young children there is often a fascination about dinosaurs which can’t be denied.
This 25th anniversary edition of Dinosaur Roar! celebrates the joy which dinosaurs; and books, can bring.
Its rhythmic style feels almost song like when read aloud, and its rhyming sequence based on opposites engages children in its predictability.
A fun and appealing exploration of language and dinosaurs, this book is sure to have young readers bopping along to its beat and expressing curiosity throughout its pages.
