5.0 out of 5 starsMy daughter's first favorite book
By Robert James on July 16, 2000
Format: Board book
This was the first book my daughter ever fell in love with.She was around nine months old, and she just loved the bright picturesand the rhymes and rhythms of the simple but interesting words. She especially loved the last page, where the dinosaurs start eating the book -- we usually tickled her like a dinosaur was nibbling on her, and she just laughed and laughed. Although she's moved on to other favorites, it's a rare night that "Dinosaur Roar" doesn't get added to the stack of books she wants read to her at bedtime.

3.0 out of 5 starsWriting/Illustration Excellent, Physical construction poor
By A Customer on April 12, 1999
Format: Board book
We bought Dinosaur Roar! for our kids becuase it was a favorite from the library. The illustrations and concepts are excellent, but this version that I ordered from Amazon is poorly constructed. I wouldn't call it a board book as much as a think card book. The pages were warped when it arrived and the puppet is too small for my 20 lb toddler to get her hand into. I still recommend the book, but see if you can get ahold of a better made older addition. Baring that, definitely pass on the puppet.

5.0 out of 5 starsOne of my simple favorites!
By David Swanson on August 26, 2004
Format: Board book
It's short but does a lot!

Each spread features a simple comparision of 2 different dinosaurs. It's a simple book of opposites that feature vibrant water color illustrations that are wonderfully painted to illustrate the comparision concepts.

"Dinosaur clean, dinosaur slimmy." "Dinosaur fit, dinosaur fat." "Dinosaur short or very very long." spiky / lumpy etc.etc. It rhymes comfortably throughout. I've taken my examples out of order. But that's the idea of comparing opposites.

The fierce dinosaur is smaller than the meek one which is huge! That's an interesting juxtaposition, much like in real life!

I love it for the simple comparison of opposites with fun visuals!

5.0 out of 5 starsROAR!!!
By Brook on February 26, 2006
Format: Board book
My 14 month old LOVES this book! When he saw it for the first time he picked it up and ROARED at the dinosaur on the cover. We have to take this book with us when we visit Grandma's or go out for any length of time, and he has to have it read to him at least once a day. This is his favorite book.

4.0 out of 5 starsDino-might
By E. R. Bird HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWER on January 8, 2005
Format: Board book
Ah. The perpetual love youngsters have for dinosaurs. It's one of those constants on which we can all rely. No matter what goes on in the world, whether it be floods, famines, or the everyday trials of ordinary life, one thing is for certain. As long as there are children and as long as books about dinosaurs exist, the two will be perpetually and inexplicably linked. Now I've actually not read that many really interesting dinosaur books in my day. There's the obligatory, "How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight?", by Jane Yolen and (of course) "Dinotopia", but for all the enjoyment these scaly reptiles engender, there are relatively few well-written preschool aged books about them. Enter "Dinosaur Roar!", stage right. The books admittedly fails to do some of the basic dinosaur book duties. It does not name each and every terrible lizard with its Latin moniker. Just the same, the book is a good early introduction into the world of reading. Kids interested in it will find themselves immersed in a dinosaur laden universe that fulfills all their dino-related needs. And adults will not be bored. Nuff said.

"Dinosaur Roar!" is best described as a book of dino opposites. In it, we see one dino doing one thing and a very different dino doing another. It begins with "Dinosaur roar, dinosaur squeak" and continues on another two pages with "dinosaur fierce, dinosaur meek". Different reptiles react in different ways. On some pages, sharp toothed gleeful fellows attempt to munch on their neighbors while on others, sweet faced tiny creatures flee, scurry, to do whatsoever the words on the page say. In the end, it all culminates with several pages worth of dinosaurs eating their favorite foods.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsYour Kids Will Love It
By Elisabeth on May 5, 2000
Format: Board book
If you are in the market for a childrens book for ages 2 to 6...then look no further. This book captivates every child Ive seen go near it. We have purchased so many copies for gifts at birthday parties....I lost count. The colors, words, non-threatening dinosaurs, and the hard pages are all great reasons to own this book. If you want a vertually indistructable text that they will sit still and listen to, or read themselves....start clicking that mouse. I plan to buy another half dozen or more before the year is out. What better gift than that of reading to a small child!
