Today’s baby book club read is another gem found at a library book sale. Dinosaur Dance! is a very unassuming little board book by Sandra Boynton.
I was not expecting much, to be honest, but was happily surprised that the book has a pretty great rhythm overall, with only one or two places where I thought “huh?”.
The illustrations also did not look particularly appealing, but they turned out to be pretty cute after all. Just look at this grumpy little T-Rex face.
I like reading this book to my daughter because it is short and the rhythm of the lines catches her attention, especially if I give it a little extra oompf while I’m reading.
I also think that it will hold up well into the toddler years since it includes real dino names, as opposed to just describing them by size or color.
