review 1: "Dinotrux" is a collaboration of two favorite things, dinosaurs and big trucks. Using rhyme and wonderful illustrations, the reader is given a visual, imaginative esson on what dinosaurs would be like if they were part trucks. From the Garbageadons to the Firesaurus, this truck will show how modern day trucks evolved from dinotrux.Ages 3-8This book will appeal to any kid who loves dinosaurs or big trucks such as fire trucks, garbage trucks or diggers. It is a fun, creative story that could motivate reluctant readers. Also, it has graphics similar to graphic novels.I would keep this in stock to keep readers engaged in reading. I could have kids create their own dinotruck and talk about what it would be able to do. It would creative expression. Students could create stories ... moreabout a dinotruck.
review 2: Dinosaurs and trucks, an irresistible combination for most young boys. The story of how Dinotrux once ruled the world is cute and the cave peoples reactions are pretty funny. The illustrations are my favorite part. Each two-page spread portrays creatively named dinotrux such as Dumploducus and Dozeratops wreaking havoc on the Prehistoric world. Eventually most of the Dinotrux meet a tragic end and the world is completely changed. less
