Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs Paperback – Picture Book, April 30, 1993

Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs is, at the moment, my baby's favorite book. I spread a different set of four books out on the floor in front of her every morning, and she always chooses this one first if it's there. She turns the pages herself, and seems to favor kentroasuarus (orange dinosaur with spikes) and tyrannosaurus rex (dinosaur with long, sharp claws and long, sharp teeth). It's really fun to see!Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs is also one of my favorite baby books. I love Byron Barton's illustration style with big, bold colors, and I like his simple writing style, too. I also get a kick out of the fact that a volcano erupts every time T-Rex comes on the scene. I guess he's just that awesome.This set of board books (I have a lot from Byron Barton, including: Boats, Planes, Machines at Work, and Trains) stands up very well to its exposure to a teething, drooling baby who still spits up on her books regularly and is determined to turn the pages for herself -- enthusiastically. That is to say, we abuse -- I mean, read -- this book daily, and it's still in quite good shape. A little wear and tear at the edges of the pages where the gumming has been particularly vigorous, but otherwise fine.My only lament about this book, and board books in general, is that they are nearly always abridged. I have the paperback version of this book, too, and it has some extra pages in it, including triceratops mommy laying her eggs and the pachycephalosaurses head-butting it out. Without the battle of the bony-headed dinosaurs, the pachycephalosaurus on the last page of the book seems like an afterthought.Oh well. I still love this book, and Elsie just has something to look forward to when she's big enough for paper books (if Dinosaurs Dinosaurs is still a favorite by then).

This book is my and my son's second favorite book from Byron Barton, the top being "Bones, Bones, Dinosaur Bones." This book is excellent and great for young children that might be interested in dinosaurs. My son is only 4 months old, but he loves the images and the kind of art that Mr. Barton does in these books.Manufactured in China.

This is a great babies first book. Was shipped quick.

This book is really wonderful and colorful. It's one of my son's absolute favorites. The 'plot' is pretty straightforward, just describing the different types of dinosaurs (i. e. dinosaurs with horns, dinosaurs with sails on their backs, scared dinosaurs, hungry dinosaurs, etc). If you read every line with emotional flare, it becomes very dramatic. It has the names and pictures of the dinosaurs in the back, so it's educational as well as entertaining.My son also likes pointing to all the different objects in the book - the water, the sun and stars and trees, so we spend some time talking about every page. And board books are really wonderful because he can turn the pages himself without tearing the book apart.

My kids love this book. And seeing all the different kinds of dinosaurs. And not having to try to pronounce their name.

This is my favorite childhood book!!! I was so happy to get it for my 3 Dino obsessed boys!! And it came as a board book which is even better!

This is one of my 2 year old's favorite books. He knows every single page by heart, as well as the names of the dinosaurs! The book is cute, easy to read, and fun! Here is my complaint though: in the paperback copy we checked out from the library, there was a page with parasaurolophus, but that page is missing in the board book version I bought on Amazon! I wonder why! It's our favorite page and now we miss it!

This was my favorite book as a child. I just bought this for my son and I am excited to share a classic from my childhood with him. Great for any little ones who love Dinosaurs.

Bought this new, the front of the book has marks and dents/scratches on it, the back has dents/scratches and has a stained/dicoloured area. The bottom of the pages are also discoloured. Pretty disappointed

Bought this as a gift and it went down really well. Very difficult to find a hard back Dinosaur baby book actually so was v pleased with this. My favourite bit is the dinosaur names and how to pronounce them at the back! Thanks :D

Great book for toddler yoga class! They love the pictures!

Ok

恐竜の表紙だけで、すでに私の生徒たちは絵本を見せた途端に興奮状態。生徒の中には女の子も多いのですが、皆、恐竜には興味深々で、誰が本読みする私の一番前に座るかで既に、軽い小競り合い。・・内容は、大人としては特に目新しくも面白くもなく、２ページに、１セエンテンスづつの非常に平易な英文で、３歳児でも絵を見て理解できるようになっています。「昔、昔、恐竜たちがいた」「とがった歯を持った恐竜たちがいた」「背びれをもった恐竜たちがいた」という感じです。・・ただ、子供はよっぽど好きなのでしょうか夢中で暗唱してくれてます。中に、背びれ・・sail 甲冑・・armer など、ちょっと日本の英語教育では習わない単語もあるのですが、自然に頭に入った様子です。英会話クラスが盛り上がる度で、星５つ行きたい所ですが、内容にはまるで工夫がないので（恐竜って子供が大好きなネタを扱ってるだけでの人気です）４つにしました。
