Children's ✦ Penny’s Take

The Dinosaur Museum

Robert Rosen · 2018
52/100
👎 Skip It

A functional early-reader built around a field trip and a low-stakes friendship conflict — exactly what its 'Field Trip Fun' series promises and nothing more. The bilingual availability is a genuine plus for classroom shelves, but there is no distinguishing quality in the writing or illustration to push it above the crowded early-reader pack. Emergent readers are better served by more memorable titles in the same space.
