As Christmas approaches the local dinosaurs are making preparations all over town.  While T.rex munches s’mores, Raptor is enjoying the first snow with other dino buddies.  This book is humorous and silly to the max, readers will tour the community, meet all the residents and laugh at their pranks.  Wheeler offers a fun folic to her Dino loving readers but many of the rhyme patterns feel forced.  Gott’s illustrations are large and very colorful as well as being dynamic.  Best is the size of the font which is readable for the intended audience of early readers in K – grade 3. 

This reader is somewhat off put by the total elimination of any religious observation within the community.   Christmas is a religious holiday yet this is totally secular.  Add this where other titles  by this author are cherished.
