Description
In this outrageous "safety guide", a child in a museum asks their parents how the dinosaurs all became extinct. Before the mother can finish a logical answer, the father interrupts and lists how over twenty species perished, with increasingly absurd and hilarious reasons, some of which the child, and other kids!, may be guilty. Gallimimus? Ran with scissors. Ankylosaurus? Tipped in their chair. Spinosaurus? Swam after eating. Tyrannosaurus rex? Didn?t change their underwear. By the end of the story, the child vows that they will not do any of these "dangerous" things again and scolds the dinosaurs for not being more careful. Complete with dad jokes and tantrum-throwing dinosaurs, this picture book written by New York Times bestselling author Ame Dyckman with uproarious illustrations by Jenn Harney will have kids laughing out loud as they see dinosaurs getting into serious trouble from some all-too-familiar hijinks.
