Book Reviews of How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight?
Book Review: a great bedtime story for little ones who love dinosaurs
Summary: 5 Stars
Another great book by Jane Yolen! This adorable book teaches young ones how they should behave at bedtime by using dinosaurs as examples. Each page features a different dinosaur, and within each illustration, the dinosaur's name is displayed (on the headboard of the bed, spelled out in wooden blocks, etc.). Not only can this book be used to coax children into bed quietly, children can even learn the names of these different dinosaurs! With the upcoming Disney movie release, the interest in dinosaurs is sure to peak. Be sure to get this book, as it is one of the best new books out right now.Book Review: Best Bedtime Book
Summary: 5 Stars
Both my 20-month-old and 3.5-year-old daughters love this book. It is fun to read with fantastic illustrations, but there are other books that meet those criteria. What makes it so special is that reading this book actually makes it easier to put the kids to bed. Read "they give a big kiss" -- then give your child a kiss. When you get to "they give a big hug and give one kiss more" do the the same. Then read "Good night. Good night, little dinosaur." Then turn out the lights and exit. My kids are not easy to put to sleep, but this book seems to do the trick.Book Review: Buy this book in hardcover, not as a board book!
Summary: 5 Stars
We got a couple of books in the Dinosaurs series as board books from my coworker, and overall my daughter (22 months at the time of this review) liked them, but the hardcovers are simply gorgeous with large, detailed and brilliant pictures. I got this book in the library, and Anna wanted to read it several times in a row (not to mention every night since then). I plan to assemble the whole series of hardcovers for her over time, since I see these books having a long life in her development from a bright toddler to a curious child.Book Review: Preschoolers love this story
Summary: 5 Stars
Although a fan of author Jane Yolen, I was not familiar with this book until one of my preschoolers brought it to school. Overall, the children immediately loved the rhyming, sing-songy text and they were quickly "reading along" on their own. As can be the magic of a good book, the children read it to each other over and over. It appealed more to the younger 3 and 4 year olds (the older 4s and 5s are looking for a little more depth to their stories). I am interested to see if the other books in the series hold equal appeal.Book Review: Love this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
My girls and I love this book! It is the perfect rhyming book with ample opportunities to add life to it while you read. My girls love to stomp their feet on the floor, and we all stop when we get to "does a dinosaur" and real loud all three of us ROAR and they get such a kick out of that. They also like to show me the Mama and the Daddy at different points. We also have the clean up book and that is equally as good. And the illustrations are fantastic. A HUGE fan of this author/illustrator and I HIGHLY recommend this book.
