A Very Dinosaur Birthday was such a fun ride! I liked that the writing was a little crass (farting, bums, etc) and it was very brightly illustrated. I appreciated it the storyline of the ups and downs of having dinos at a birthday party! I don't think the Christmas reference was necessary.

This book was so cute! I read it to my 5 year old daughter, and she laughed and laughed. The illustrations were very well done. My daughter kept asking to go back and look at the pages again. I also loved that it involved dinosaurs because it a great way for kids to learn the names of some of them.

Thank you to NetGalley, and the publisher for the eARC! This is a perfect read for any dino loving kiddo! Preschool aged children will love this book. The rhyming throughout the book is a fun add. The illustrations are bright and colorful yet not overwhelming. Would recommend for any young reader who loves dinosaurs!

My son absolutely loved this book. He was engaged throughout the whole book. He was laughing and pointing at the pictures. Some of the text was a bit hard to read with the right flow, but still a fun book for both him and myself.

Within the first page on description of dinosaurs it had me laughing out loud

Descriptive words stand out because of the font design and color

Illustrations are bright and fun. They illustrate the story being told on the page very well by giving you a visual of what is going on.

I read this book with my 3 year old son and he seemed to really enjoy it. We have read a few in this series so far and I'll probably keep picking them up since my son loves Dinosaurs at the moment.

Rating: 5 out of 5
