Children's Day & Summer Book Review - If You Happen to Have a Dinosaur

Four publishers have sent me some of their wonderful picture/story books for children and with Children's Day coming up and Summer break just around the corner, there couldn't be a better time to share these books with you. Today I'm SO happy to share a completely fun story from tundra books - If You Happen to Have a Dinosaur by Linda Bailey & Colin Jack - this is an absolute MUST-HAVE book for the young children you love!

Favorite Features - 

  • Illustrations are SO fun! Full of color, mischief, and dinosaurs!
  • I truly enjoyed the story - it is absolutely clever and fun - parts of it had me laughing! If my grands were younger we would ABSOLUTELY be reading it together tonight on their sleepover.
  • Imaginative and creative and helpful - especially if you happen to have a dinosaur lying about in your living room!
tundra says, "If you happen to have a dinosaur, lying around your living room, and you don't know what to do with it...why don't you use it as a can opener? It will make a terrific nutcracker too! There are oodles of uses for a dinosaur -- from a fine umbrella to an excellent kite and a dandy pillow, not to mention a reliable burglar alarm and the perfect excuse to forget your homework. This delightfully absurd exploration of the domestic uses of dinosaurs -- and the things dinos just aren't good for at all -- is guaranteed to tickle funny bones and spark imaginations. If you read carefully, you'll learn how to make your dinosaur last a very long time."

I can not recommend If You Happen to Have a Dinosaur highly enough - if you only add one book to your library or give one book to the children you love for Children's Day - this is absolutely the one to get! I'm sure it is obvious, but I most definitely love, If You Happen to Have a Dinosaur - you and the children you love will love this book as well! You will find it at this link.
