This is a fun book about school for kids. My kids loved seeing the silly dinosaurs hiding around the school and the funny surprise at the end.

Oh No! Dinosaurs in My School features a different twist on a traditional story about dinosaurs - this time with children being blamed for dinosaurs' antics. This was a fun read, but I felt like the pacing was a little off while at times the plot could have been more clear what was happening. Some of this could have been due to reading on iPad though and not being able to see multiple pages at once. My 4 year old loved this one though and enjoyed pointing out all of the dinosaurs hiding on each page.

This was seriously such a fun read! There are a lot of kids' books out there that are about dinosaurs, but this book added something different to this specific subgenre. I think that what made this book unique was the various twists and turns that the main character faces at school, especially that last surprise! Adding onto that, the way that this book was organized was utterly perfect. The plot was clear, the book wasn't too long/short, and every second of the story was highly entertaining and lively. This book's mood definitely reflects the creativity of the author, and it was obvious that the author put a lot into writing this book, and it paid off wonderfully. Lastly, the illustrations weren't scientifically accurate, BUT that just increased the whimsical and different tone of the book. In my opinion, the illustrator took a risk, but executed it in such a way that it fit this story in the best way possible. Bravo, bravo!!!

I read this book with my four-year-old, and we both really liked it! The story is a combination of cute/silly that’s always enjoyable, and the illustrations are nicely done. We had a lot of fun trying to find the more hidden dinosaurs on some of the pages, and I really appreciated the pronunciation guides for the dino names.

As one constructive comment, the eBook download seems like it could use a little work (on iPhone, the pictures sometimes display in quarter-cuts so it takes four “flips” to see one page).

Loved how the dinosaurs 🦖 are named in the first pages and their pronunciations, it helped me as a parent to know them quickly!
Loved the rhyming of the book it’s made it flow nicely, the story line was nice and easy to follow for both me and child. The ending was funny my son was giggling 🤭 and I didn’t see it coming! 😂 we giggled together
Very colourful and bright caught my son’s attention quickly, he loved pointing out the dinosaurs and their bright colours!
Fun read, dinosaur mad children will love it! 🥰

I voluntarily read this book and I absolutely loved it!! This book was fun, adventurous and silly. My students will be begging me to read it numerous times. I will be recommending it to all of my fellow educators.! Love, love,love it!!

We are deeply in our dinosaur era right now and this book was so fun. The illustrations are so cute and the rhymes are catchy.

I want to start by thanking the author and publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced release copy copy of this book. Pretty cute book.

A cute picture book about what happens when dinosaurs end up at a kids school. I mean what kid or adult doesn't love dinos.

Oh No! Dinosaurs in My School by Timothy Knapman is a fun and imaginative read that I think kids—especially dinosaur lovers—will really enjoy. The story is playful and creative, and the illustrations are absolutely adorable and full of energy. I could see this being a hit at storytime!

I gave it 4 stars because the flow felt a little awkward in spots—I found myself re-reading a line or two to get the rhythm right, and some of the phrasing felt a bit off to me. That said, it’s still a super cute book with tons of kid appeal. A great pick for little ones who love a bit of chaos and dinos in their stories!

What would you do if you were the only one who could see dinosaurs in your school? Would you try to tell the teachers? Would they believe that dinosaurs were causing the chaos and mischief and NOT you? You just happen to be where all the chaos is... because you are tracking the destructive dinosaurs... but what if they adults finally DO see them? Read on to find out! This was a highly engaging and fun picture book... about a day with dinosaurs in a school.

A fun and silly book for a dinosaur loving kid! My daughter enjoyed it but at the end did ask “Why is the Science Teacher a dinosaur too?” And I would agree. It ends on a bit of a cliffhanger? Or at least does seem to have a wrap up to the story. None the less it was well written well illustrated and enjoyable.

A rhyming book of dinosaurs in a little boy's school. Are they imaginary or not? The kids will have fun wondering.

My three boys giggled their bellies away with this book! It was SO cute! The pages were just darling, and the story was so cute! I loved it. We read it over and over again. Highly recommend.

What a fun and clever book.
There are dinosaurs in a boys school but no one believes him. All the mischief that’s happening he’s right in the middle. At the end though they finally believe him.
The illustrating this great book to life. I enjoy how throughout it talk about the kinds of dinosaurs.
I will be buying this book for my 4 year old great nephew when it’s released.

This was an adorable book. Our main character is trying to get the grownups to believe him that there are dinosaurs at his school, but they just will not. The teachers even accuse the kids of making such incredible messes, until finally they see the dinosaurs for themselves.

This was a very cute and well illustrated story. We enjoyed looking for the dinosaurs hiding amongst the pages as well as the ones front and center!

Thank you to NetGalley and SOURCEBOOKS Kids for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Mother of two here, and we enjoyed Oh No! Dinosaurs in My School! Timothy Knapman came up with such a fun idea, posing dinosaurs throughout the school and no one seeing them. It reminded us of another dinosaur book we love, How Do Dinosaurs Go to School. We loved the creativity of the illustrations by Sarah Warburton. Our favorite was the library scene. It was the perfect book for my 8-year-old to read to my 5-year-old! I would definitely recommend this to a dino-loving family!

Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Kids for this eARC!

The book was beautifully written. Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it. Thank you for this advance reading copy!

Oh No Dinosaurs in my School is a whimsical read. Dinosaurs are always a hit in my house, so for the fact alone this book was already a win. It’s written using engaging rhymes with enchanting illustrations that perfectly capture the scenes. The secret teacher at the end was also a fun surprise. My kids were engaged from start to finish with this book.

My five year old son adored this book! He loves dinosaurs. He thought the dinosaurs antics at school were so funny. The illustrations are bright and colorful. The text is fun and engaging. This would be the perfect book to read in a classroom!
