review 1: Although their dinosaur elders warn four youngsters about the fierce Gingantosaurus, they still enjoy playing. But like the boy who cried wolf in the famous folktale, Bonehead doesn't take his job as lookout seriously. Several times he warns his friends of approaching danger, but it turns out to be dinosaur friends. When the scary dinosaur finally arrives, no one listens to Bonehead. Although there aren't a lot of surprises here, the digital illustrations and story are sure to have dino-mite appeal for dinosaur lovers. I liked the back matter providing information about various dinosaurs and the endpapers with a dinosaur tail and bones. This one is fun to read aloud.
review 2: This book made me smile the entire time I was reading it! Gigantosaurus is a Mesozoic... more spin on a Peter and the Wolf like tale full of great rhythm, rhyme, and patterning. The mix of text and speech bubbles enhanced my engagement in the story. Also, I loved, loved, loved the illustrations, especially the facial expressions on the dinosaurs. I just want to open the door, get on the floor, and walk the dinosaur!! less
