In this delightful book, a small boy imagines a world where dinosaurs perform public services.
Helpful dinosaurs carry people to work and back, while house painters manage high walls without needing any ladders. They assist firefighters putting out fires, help crews build big skyscrapers, and rescue kites stuck in very tall trees.
Farmers plow their fields with ease, and librarians get help reaching books from the top shelf. Dentists find plenty of teeth to work on, while rain clouds are pushed away so the sun can always shine.
“Bold lines accentuate imaginative, humorous ideas. A natural for student response: students formulate their own outcomes about what would happen if the dinosaurs returned. An overwhelming favorite in the early grades.”--The Reading Teacher
