Books like Dinosaur Roar!
By Paul Stickland
For the toddler who loves stomping around the living room roaring, this turns dinosaur obsession into a first lesson on opposites. Bouncy, loud, and full of stomping energy.
A rambunctious crew of dinosaurs shakes tails and stomps feet through a string of silly dance moves — the Shimmy Shimmy Shake, the Quivery Quake, and a rollicking Cha Cha Cha.
Dinosaurs of every shape and size stomp, wiggle, and boogie their way to a swampy clearing, gathering for one huge, thundering dance party.
A feisty red dinosaur roars his way to the library, gathering a lonesome turtle, a sad owl, and other animal friends along the way — but storytime might finally be his match.
A parade of rhyming oddballs takes readers from near to far and here to there — a bumpy Wump, a singing Ying, a winking Yink who drinks pink ink — with no plot but plenty of silly counting and rhyming along the way.
A little fish paddles through the underwater world, meeting all kinds of fish along the way — spotty, stripy, happy, grumpy, hairy, scary, even curly whirly and twisty twirly.
The numbers 1 through 100 race each other up an apple tree in a rhyming chant, piling higher and higher until bumblebees threaten trouble at the top.
A barnyard full of animals kicks up a rollicking square dance, with a fiddle-playing cow calling the moves as pigs, sheep, and horses twirl across the pages.
A fuzzy caterpillar inches through the tall grass from sunny afternoon to firefly-lit night, crunching and munching past bunnies, ants, and bees along the way.
A band of monkeys drums, hums, and dances through a bouncy rhyme, inviting little ones to find their own hands, fingers, and thumbs along the way.
A rhyming romp through everything that counts as a house — anthills, dog kennels, corn husks, pea pods — and eventually the surprising idea that a shoe, a mirror, even a word, might have a house too.
A spunky mouse invites a curious bird inside for a look around, naming every household object they find — while the people of the house grow less and less thrilled about their visitors.
