A young blue scaled dinosaur lives in the North Pole with Santa and his elves. It is the dinosaur’s biggest wish to guide Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve, but even though Santa tries to show him how to fly, the dinosaur cannot do it. As the Christmasaurus tries to find the meaning of Christmas, he also seeks other ways to fly and fulfill his dream. The illustrations are digitally created with bright and bold colors which make the landscape inviting. The different shades of blues from the dinosaurs guide the reader’s eyes to the main character every time they turn the page. Young readers who celebrate Christmas or love dinosaurs will enjoy this book.
