How Do Dinosaurs Say I Love You? | |
From Booklist
The ninth dinosaur title in the best-selling series follows the previous books’ winning formula, zeroing in this time on the anxiety little kids feel when they mess up and their subsequent relief when they realize that they are loved no matter what they do. Here, though, it’s the children (or dinos) who offer active gestures of love to the parents, rather than the other way around, providing an interesting twist. As in the other series titles, the huge, bumbling, childlike dinos are a comic delight, and kids will see themselves in the familiar scenarios and emotions. Preschool-Kindergarten. --Gillian Engberg
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1—In this ninth outing in the series, the naughty behaviors of young dinosaurs are followed by an endearing act that reminds their human parents why they love their offspring. The situations are familiar: "Out in the sandbox/you threw lots of sand./You ran from the slide,/after slapping my hand." Fans can follow the 10 dinosaurs by starting with their names and pictures on the endpapers. Expressions are expertly painted for humorous effect, including the defiant Tsintaosaurus letting water overflow onto the floor and the rollicking Pachycephalosaurus kicking the seat while mother is driving the car. The large, colorful spreads and rhyming text that is still a joy to listen to after repeated readings make this a successful storytime selection. Well-designed pictures and skillfully arranged words will entice newly independent readers, who will be challenged to find the dinosaur name hand-lettered in the illustration where the creature is introduced. The familiar format will produce laughs, kisses, and cuddles during or after an exhausting day of many of the same events.—Debbie S. Hoskins, Grand Rapids Public Library, MI END

Gah! My son and I love reading these books and this one is no exception! The story goes through different parts of a "dinosaur's" (aka your child) day and the things that they did that upset their parents. And after each thing it tells something sweet that the "dinosaur" did that made its parents happy and showed love.
This book is so sweet and always brings a smile to my face. My son, who doesn't quite get the symbolism, loves the dinosaurs and that each picture tells you what type of dinosaur it is. I guess there is something in it for both of us!
I do not like that this story is so negative... talking the whole way through about all the ornery things the dino does.... but then shows his love with a smile. Not really our style. I exclusively use it for my 2 year old (who can't read) and change all the words in the story to be positive . The first line in the book is "You woke in the morning in such a bad mood"... I replace it with "You woke up this morning in such a good mood".... I just tell it more positively for my 2 year old to hear.
In a day and age where some children do not always have the advantage of being taught etiquette, I find these books to be such a positive way to teach children kindness and manners. They have a sense of humor that both adults and children can enjoy and learn a positive message about so many different things. You cannot buy manners, you either have them or you don't. Kindness, respect, please and thank you can mean so much for any little thing in life and enrich your life at the same time. I love to give these books as presents because the provide a positive message on sometimes difficult things to express to any one at any age.
