Rating:  Summary: These dinos are friendly Review: Dinosaurs with different emotions, behaviors, sizes, colors, even times. Happy/sad, good/bad, early/later, weak/strong, cold/hot - you get the picture. We also like 1 2 3! and Barnyard Dance in this grouping. Almost all of the Boynton books are a hit at our house.
Rating:  Summary: love it Review: Got it, love it. And we've read it to Alex so many times that he can almost read it along with us (and he's only 16 mos old!) He even points to the colors at the end and says 'bye-bye' when the dinosaurs "say goodbye, because they're through". Another winner!
Rating:  Summary: One of my toddler's favorites! Review: I have read to my 24-month-old almost every night of his life, and now that he is old enough to understand, "Go get some books for Mommy to read," he almost always picks this one with his choices. He calls it "Dinos" and really follows along with the reading. The colors are bright, the opposites and rhymes are age-appropriate, and the book is just great for young readers and pre-readers. We got this as a gift from a child who we gave "Barnyard Dance", another great Boynton book, and we plan on buying the rest of the Boynton board books to add to our collection.

Rating:  Summary: Dinos! Review: I never really realized how many different types of dinosaurs there were until I read this book, even if they be 'dinosaurs crammed in an elevator.' This book mentions all sorts of dinosaurs, from big to tiny, smooth to spiky and hot to cold. The pictures used to illustrate each type of dinosaur are really wonderful. They are bright, bold, colorful, and, above all, cute. Like all the Boynton books I've read, the words in this book rhyme very well, effortlessly. The rhyming also helps to make the book flow well, and flow well it does. This is a classic Boynton book, and is a wonderful book.Loggie-log-log-log

Rating:  Summary: This book is great for teaching opposites. Review: I provided child care for a one-and-a-half year old girl who loved this book. We read this book so many times, she could recite each page from the beginning to the end. She never tired of reading it, and frankly, neither did I--especially since she was the one reading it. Her parents were very impressed to find that she could read this book, or at least memorize it by the pictures, at such a young age. I would highly recommend this book about opposites.
Rating:  Summary: A Dinosaur Favorite that We Read Again and Again Review: I purchased this book for my daughter when she was only one, and we both quickly learned to love it. Then, when my son came along, this book became one of his favorites as well! The wonderful rhymes and adorable pictures make this book a true blessing for the parent who has to read it over, and over, and over... :-) I was especially impressed by the small bit of musical score that is part of the rhyme "Dinosaurs singing a dinosaur song." Whenever we get to that page, my children love to sing the little tune that is written there! Sandra Boynton is a wonderful children's writer, and this is a great example of her work. I highly recommend this book!

Rating:  Summary: A Winner with Both Children! Review: It was my daughter's favorite and now my son's. We read it with funny cartoon-like voices and they ask for it over and over again. Boynton is wonderful; her books make terrific birthday gifts for young ones.
