SUMMER READING DINO BOOK OF THE WEEK!

Dinosaur vs. the library (JE SHEA)

Use your indoor ROAR when reading this interactive story time favorite, from the popular Dinosaur vs. series by seriously funny man Bob Shea!

Dinosaur is going to one of his favorite places: the library! On the way, he invites his friends—a lonesome turtle, a sad owl and more—to ROAR along with him. But how will his roaring go over at the library? Has Dinosaur finally met his match in Storytime? By combining everyone's favorite feisty red dinosaur with a variety of animals and a celebration of reading, author-illustrator-designer Bob Shea has created another irresistible romp for toddlers and parents to enjoy together.
