The pop up illustrations really make this book. The text is fine too, but not really anything special. An excellent choice for storytime with really young children.

[Angie]

Got to love a popup book

Storytime Themes: Dancing, Movement, Dinosaurs

Who doesn't love dinosaurs? And pop-up books? This is a great idea for Storytime.

[Miss Becky]

One of my favorite pop-up books to share in storytime. All the dinosaurs hare headed to Stomp in the Swamp (Dinosaur Dance)

[Hendrix]

Read by my auntie Grace, I liked the rhyming and the pop up Dinos!

[M]

This is great! Would absolutely work for a Baby or Toddler Storytime.

[Lauren]

Dancing dinosaurs that pop out of the pages make for a fun, quick read. The short, rhyming story doesn't add much, but the colorful pop-up dino appeal and shortness makes up for it.

[Heidi-Marie]

A nice, easy book for story break in Movement storytime. And the kids love pop-ups! (And dinosaurs, too.)

5/4/15 Been a while since I used this, so I brought it out for Movement storytime again. Huge hit.

1/23/17 Getting back into the habit of Movement storytime, the one thing I forgot was to pull a book. Thank goodness we have this on the shelf in the storytime closet. Kids liked and enjoyed.

Typical Stickland dinosaur fare--fun, colorful, and text that kids can interact with. This one is a pop up book, and is a little simpler than Dinosaurs Galore! A Roaring Pop-up. Definitely a great one for young dinosaur lovers.

The best part about this book were, by far, the pictures because it's a pop up book that is done in bold and eye catching colors. I didn't really think the content of the book was all that impressive but the class of 4 year olds it was read to seemed to like it.

This isn't my favorite of Strickland's dinosaur stories, but pop-up books are gold in story time! The kids "oooh-ed" and "ahhh-ed" at the pictures while I read the book during a dinosaur/dragon-themed program for bilingual story time.

A true pop-up/pop-out book! Great for one on one or group sharing. This format is in my professional collection not available to the public at the library due to the "fragileness" of the book. The children loved it.

[Kristy]

Dinosaur Stomp! is a fun, short pop-up that invites you to the dinosaur stomp party! The preschool group loved the pop-ups, and they had fun stomping and roaring with the dinosaurs.

Good for preschool storytime.

[Crystal]

Toddlers and pop up books have got to be the best combination in the world. Loved the colors and the various shapes of all of the dinosaurs though some of the shapes made it hard to read. Fortunately it was easy to more or less memorize.

pop up book dancing

[Valerie]

pop-up dinosaurs - what more do toddlers want???! Preschoolers, to enjoy this visual delight.

[Eastofoz]

One of the best pop-up books I've ever come across. Very short story (one liner sentences per page) but cute and fun nonetheless. A sure hit with kids.

[Lisa Houlihan]

Eh. The pop-ups were good, which might be all that three-year-olds care about, and the rhymes worked, but there wasn't much story and what there was repeated a book from a couple of weeks ago.

[Kendra]

The toddlers LOVED this. Short, pop-ups, AND dinosaurs. What's not to love?

[Jenny]

Great pop-up pages for sharing in storytime!

[Curteee]

[Casandria]

[createitlibrarian (Amanda)]

Short fun book for Storytime

[Ashley]

Cute pop-up book about dinosaurs. No real plot :)

[Sarah Kramer]

Kids love the pop-up illustrations. Fun rhyming text. All about dinosaurs.

[Joy]

Rhyming text and fun pop-ups -- good for storytime or a one-on-one reading situation.

[Marie]

I love pop-up books!
