Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreS. Bright orange, blue, and purple smiling dinosaurs pop out in all directions in this amusing book. "Jump and prance, it's a dinosaur dance!" Stickland utilizes plenty of action verbs to tell about these appealing dinosaurs going to the "stomp." The greatest strength, though, is in the design of the giant pop-ups and the bold illustrations. The ample size and rhythmic text make this a great book to share with a group. "Come out, don't miss a party like this...." You'll have preschoolers ready to shimmy and shake after sharing this in story time.?Sharon R. Pearce, San Antonio Public Library, TX

More About the Author
Paul Stickland is the author, illustrator and pop up engineer of many, many children's books, including Dinosaur Roar!, The Christmas Bear, Santa's Workshop, Big Dig, One Bear One Dog, Truck Jam, A Number of Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs Galore, Monkey Business, Ten Terrible Dinosaurs, Bears! and many, many more...
I am based in the ancient town of Sherborne, Dorset, in England.
I have six children, Rowan, Felix, Gus, Kit, Arthur and Tabitha.
For the past few years, despite a rigorous publishing schedule, I have spent as much time as I can out on the road, giving inspirational talks and fun drawing and pop-up workshops to children (and their parents!) in schools, libraries and literary festivals, from Edinburgh, Cheltenham and Glastonbury.
I have worked in the UK, Italy and America, in a great diversity of settings, the more challenging the better!
The visits start with the simplest of readings, through explanations of the process of creating and producing a children's book, to drawing workshops and hands on pop-up workshops. I am happy to work with all sizes of groups. I have found working with children with special needs to be particularly rewarding.
I am a passionate advocate for the world of children's books and as the years pass, I have become more and more drawn to working with and empowering young children to expand their creativity through this magical world.

WOW! Best pop-up book I have ever seen, hands down.,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dinosaur Stomp (Books are Fun ed.) (Hardcover)
This book puts all other pop-up books to shame. The colors are magnificent and the pop-ups are detailed and exciting. My 2-year-old is on his 2nd one because he loved this book when he was 15 months old and got a little too excited and ripped off some heads and tails. The story is cute and we love to make up our own stories. Buy this book - new or used, you will never regret it.

Colerful, Energetic and Fun,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dinosaur Stomp (Books are Fun ed.) (Hardcover)
This pop up book is done in brlliant colors and just screams fun at you. It's written in verse and is simply a short account of a bunch of dinosaurs on their way to a "stomp"(dance). My three year old loves it and it's a favorite at his preschool.

Dinosaur Stomp is a Fun Little Romp!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dinosaur Stomp (Books are Fun ed.) (Hardcover)
I know Horn Book says this book has "little substance" but my 10 month old doesn't care! I've been reading it to him for months and by the time he was 8 months, his whole face would light up when I pulled it off the shelf. There's neither a lesson to be learned nor skills to be sharpened, but it makes up for it in giggles and squeals.
