REVIEW
Getting into the holiday spirit, we are reviewing The Littlest Dinosaur’s First Christmas (The Littlest Dinosaur Series). While geared toward young readers, I read this story to my 9-year-old book-loving twin boys, who enjoyed it, thinking, as they put it, “Pretty good.”
In The Littlest Dinosaur’s First Christmas, we meet our favorite veggie-loving t-rex, his brother Ty, and Mama Tyrannosaur. It’s Christmas eve, and Ty and the Littlest dinosaur cannot wait to open presents. Only upon Christmas day do The Littlest Dinosaur and Ty find out the gifts are not for them. Who are they for, then? Mama Tyranasauous will show them as Ty, and The Littlest Dinosaur will learn the real spirit of Christmas.
Illustrated by Tessa Verplancke, The Littlest Dinosaur is the cutest little dinosaur you’ve ever seen. Kids will fall in love with him, and a plushie should definitely be in the works, hint hint to authors.
As a parent, I enjoyed reading the story. I liked how the text bubbles matched the color of the dino who was talking ( Mama dinosaur is blue, Ty is darker green, while our littlest dino is a lighter green.), so you knew who was talking. The sweet message of the overall tale is one that every parent should delight in and love to read to their kids repeatedly.
I rate The Littlest Dinosaur’s First Christmas 5 out of 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
