Who knew that dinosaurs could be born as preemies? I had no idea till I read this book.
The eponymous (that's the biggest word I'll use all week) littlest dinosaur is littler than everyone else, and is sad about it. He goes to a big hill to make himself feels big, and often sees the biggest dinosaur on a neighboring hill, looking as sad as the littlest dinosaur feels. One day the littlest dinosaur's family gets caught in the mud and the littlest dinosaur rescues them, despite his small size, with the help of the biggest dinosaur, who finally feels useful despite his large size.
It's cute and the littlest dinosaur is pretty lovable. I'm not jumping up and down, but this is a fun addition to a large stack of dinosaur books that have been piling up around our house during the past few trips to the library. It's definitely one to buy or check out a dozen times or more if you've got a little one who is, well, the littlest kid in his playgroup/class. We first read The Littlest Dinosaur's Big Adventure
, by the way, which was also in the same category...cute, worth checking out and worth reading a few times.
