Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
How Do Dinosaurs ... Pocket Library
Jane Yolen · 2007
80/100
👍 Worth It
Four miniaturized How Do Dinosaurs titles in one pocket-sized box set — counting, colors, chores, and friendship — covering the early learning bases with the series' reliable humor and Teague's distinctive illustrations. The smaller format slightly diminishes the visual impact, and this is packaging rather than new content, but as a gift for a toddler it is hard to beat. A proven series in an accessible form.
