- an “Ugly Duckling” type story but with dinos!
- rhyme cadence is perfectly bouncy
- illustrations contrast T-Rexes’ carnivore habits (ugly bone piles) with duckbills’ herbivore habits (pretty plants)
Type: slightly longer picture book
Ages: 4-8
Author: Julia Donaldson
Illustrator: David Roberts
This should be read aloud for full effect! If you’re familiar with “The Gruffalo,” this is the same author and has the same feel to it. Happy reading!
