Daniel Dinosaur

by Daryl K. Cobb, Carla Castagno (Illustrator)

--Kirkus Reviews calls Daniel Dinosaur "A sweet story told in simple rhymes that young children will likely enjoy. Daniel has just turned 4... his parents ask him to watch over [his sister Sue] while their away, and he loses track of her. Danny's search for Sue is humorous, and it is rendered with lively drawings. The drama of losing Sue is so brief that it shouldn't be frightening, even to sensitive children. The light, whimsical drawings maintain a sense of fun. This will be a good book for young siblings or for children who have a little brother or sister on the way. Cobb and Castangno's cute, colorful picture book illustrates the bond between a brother and sister. " Daniel Dinosaur learns an important lesson here as he searches for his sister and teaches kids about responsibility. "Daniel Dinosaur" is fun for children ages 0 to 8.
