Really cute interactive book for babies and toddlers. Just do NOT leave them alone with it unless you want the pop-up dinosaurs to get destroyed! They are thick paper but even tiny hands will crush them in no time!
My son loves this book. I love that he loves it. I don't love that he loves that I read it to him about three times every night since the start of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. I am really glad that I found it at TJ Maxx's discount section many, many months ago and then hid it in my closet for a rainy day, because I probably saved myself about 300 additional reads of it (and 1/4 of those possibly in one night). I am sort of not glad that I found it though because I am so sick of reading it. There is a plot, and I don't want to spoil anything here, but I find it a little concerning that Baby T-Rex has to find his mommy. Were Mommy T-Rexs the type of mom to wander off and hide in a cave such that the baby had to find them. You know what? I take that back. Mommy T-Rex's actions here make a lot of sense especially if she had no other childcare and was living through a pandemic where the schools, camps, and all possible places to take your child safely were closed. Again, trying not to give away too much here, but, in writing this review, I now think I realize why the Mommy T-Rex roars at the end. All the pop-up peekaboo books are great. Always well done. The pop-ups can often tear, which causes my son to harp on the tear for about 100 minutes. But I can usually fix it, and it's totally worth it for the fun. But, if you child is at all into dinosaurs, and if you don't want to read this book for the rest of your life possibly every single night, maybe don't get it...Okay, I have to go now and mentally prep to read this book for the 4Mth time tonight at bedtime.

The baby dinosaur pop ups in this lift-the-flap book are well engineered paper constructions, but not for little hands! If readers are looking for a board book toddlers can handle in their own, look elsewhere. But this is a good choice for those who want a cute read-aloud for bedtime. The flaps are sturdy so little hands can easily lift them to see the hidden dinosaurs, but parents will need to keep those little grasping hands away from the pop ups themselves.
Brilliant book for a dinosaur mad child!. My son absolutely loves dinosaurs so when i saw this book i had to purchase it for him. He loved it, the pop up dinosaurs are great quality and resilient to little hands pushing and poking them. The story is an enjoyable read and it also had lift the flap sections which hide the little pop up dinosaurs. All-in-all a fantastic read for both me and my son!.
