"Dad's Dinosaur Day" is an imaginative story about a boy whose dad turns into a dinosaur. Upon waking up one morning, Mikey sees that his dad is no longer human- he's a dinosaur! Mikey's mom doesn't seem too bothered by this, and just tells Mikey that his dad is having "a dinosaur day." It turns out that dinosaurs can't do many things that dads do- Mikey's dad can't go to work, drive Mikey to school, take baths, or even read. But Mikey finds that there are a lot of upsides to having a dinosaur as a dad as well. His dad can now race to Mikey's school with Mikey on his back, he can help out with jump-rope on the school's playground, and he can eat much more food now that he's a dinosaur. At the end of the day, Mikey's dad goes to sleep after Mikey reads him some bedtime stories. The next morning, Mikey's dad is back to normal, but Mikey's mom is having her own dinosaur day! This book was really cute and creative. Besides just showing a boy and his dad having fun throughout the day, the book also teaches kids a little bit about dinosaurs. I think that most kids would really enjoy this fun book.… (plus d'informations)
