A colorful book describing various dinosaurs in an adorable way. "Tricera-cries," and "bronto-booms" are noises coming from sleeping dinosaurs. Vivid description of habitats as well. Perfect book for children interested in dinosaurs. ( )

This is a rhyming themed book about sleeping dinosaurs and how they shaped the world. There isn’t much to this book but there are a few things that stand out and make it interesting. The key thing is the level of vocabulary used in the book is very impressive! They use actual archaeological terms here are a few; super continent, million, reptilian, prehistoric, mammoth and petrified. Those are to name a few; the other impressive thing about the vocabulary is it still rhymed even though they are difficult and scientific terms. The other thing I noticed is that they are telling what actually happened to dinosaurs in a playful manner. They discuss the super continent Pangaea even that at the end the continent splits a part and the last line said is “as for the rest, you may have guessed…It’s ancient history” with a girl at a museum.

Relates the earth changing consequences of millions of nights of raucous snoring by sleeping dinosaurs.
