Description

A fun introduction to eleven different dinosaurs—their size, their diet, the pronunciation of their names, and their distinctive characteristics.

Now young children can read about dinosaurs—even how to say their names—by themselves. "Shouts of welcome will greet this new addition to the I Can Read series." (Horn Book) "Excellent illustrations. A virtual necessity for any library that serves primary-grade children." (School Library Journal)

Peggy Parish is best known for her stories about Amelia Bedelia, the literal-minded housekeeper. Arnold Lobel's beloved books include four in the Frog and Toad series.

Dinosaur Time is a Level One I Can Read book, which means it’s perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences. Whether shared at home or in a classroom, the short sentences, familiar words, and simple concepts of Level One books support success for children eager?to start reading on their own. 

About the Author

Peggy Parish was born and grew up in Manning, South Carolina. Before moving to New York City, she taught school in the Panhandle country and in coal-mining areas.

Miss Parish is the author of several other books for children, including the popular Let's Be Indians.

Arnold Lobel (1933–1987) illustrated many wonderful children’s books but is most beloved for his Frog and Toad stories, including the first one, Frog and Toad Are Friends, published in 1970.

These were followed by Frog and Toad All Year and Days with Frog and Toad.
