Cute illustrations that will look best if you turn your device into landscape position. The colors pop and the expressions are rich with emotion and animation that will evoke a response from your littles

The story is very brief and includes a few activities and two printable coloring pages at the end of the book. If your child has self esteem issues, these are good add in’s.

My difficulty with this book comes from the text. There’s an attempt at rhyming but it’s wonky, at best. The book begins with straight prose, moves to rhyming couplets, stops, back to rhyme, stops again😩

Maybe the next egg Rexy finds will have an editor inside📚

A sweet, short story about dinosaurs. I especially loved the couple of questions at the end to discuss with your little ones, and help them to establish self-confidence.

Colourful and even has pictures to print off and colour at the end. Well-done! Loved it.
