Editorial Reviews

Review

Add a touch of wit, whimsy, and wholesome ridiculosity to dinosaur deliberations with Bernard Most's A Pair of Protoceratops and A Trio of Triceratops, Jeff Moss' Bone Poems, and Louis Phillips' Wackysaurus. Mr. Most's picture books feature the respective saurians minding their p's and t's-plunging into pools or playing Ping-Pong, tooting trumpets or tickling turkeys. Little ones will have fun imagining silly saurians p...ing and t...ing just like Mr. Most's. Mr. Moss' poetic foray, deftly illustrated by Tom Leigh, consists of 43 mostly dinosaur poems, many of which have titles longer than the poems themselves, e.g. What You Should Answer if Some Scientist Comes Up To You and Says, "What Do All Proboscideans Have in Common?" "Noses/Like hoses." Mr. Philips' recently reissued dinosaur knock-knocks, puns, riddles, and other jokes of the dinosaur ilk will make kids laugh and adults groan. (Children's Literature )
