But in this book, the youngsters are a wide variety of dinosaurs. And how do dinosaurs say good night?Filled with wonderful detail and humor, children and their parents will love the expressions and antics of the eleven different dinosaur children depicted here, and each species is spelled out somewhere in the young dinosaur's bedroom.

Series: How Do Dinosaurs...?
Preachy and manipulative and almost all the moms are in dresses. But cute dinosaurs.
I agree with other reviewers that this story is an entertaining "appropriate bedtime behavior" book. There wasn't anything in here that wasn't likable. But the kids that I read this to weren't terribly impressed.My niece liked it just fine, I suppose, although I don't know if she actually heard it...
This one I read to my grand child fairly often because it says so much about the process of getting ready for bed with a fun-to-read rhyme and story.
Such a great book (series, really) by Jane Yolen. A wonderful, fun way to bring up manners and acceptable/unacceptable behaviors with toddlers and preschoolers.
The favorite bedtime story at our house. By far. Simple, sweet, and wonderful for young children.
