How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?


How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?
by, Jane Yolen and Mark Teague

This is a silly bedtime story illustrating many of the behaviors kids sometimes exhibit when they don't want to go to bed. I love the cute dinosaur illustrations and the fun rhyming words. The illustrations depict great big dinosaurs throwing tantrums about going to bed, while their human parents watch. I love the giant dinosaurs hugging their teddy bears and blankets. My favorite page: "Does a dinosaur stomp his feet on the floor and shout: "I want to hear one book more!"?

So, perhaps I enjoy this book because sometimes the little dinosaurs at my house can have some bedtime troubles. I love that this book teaches appropriate behavior in a fun, silly, engaging manner.
