How to Raise a Dinosaur

24 pp. | Running | October, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7624-3342-1 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Pablo Bernasconi. A boy expounds on the virtues of a pet dinosaur, also offering tips on its care and maintenance (e.g., "It needs lots of water and lots of tummy rubs"). Humorous large-scale mixed-media illustrations enhance the straight-faced text. Inventively shaped and layered flaps appear throughout; some seem gratuitous, others expand the story's scope.
