I Wanna be a Great Big Dinosaur by Heath McKenzie

We all have dreams.  Did you ever dream of being a dinosaur?  I always wanted to be a dragon...

Sourcebooks Jabberwocky sent me a copy of this picture book for review (thank you).  It will be published in May.

If you have child who loves to act out what he/she reads, this is an ideal book for them.  The dinosaur is giving the little boy guidance into how to act like one.  After all, he's made himself a tail like one.  Now he gets to learn how to roar and how to stomp his feet.  Let your child do that, too.  The dino only eats meat, but the boy shows him all kinds of other food that is available.  The ending has a nice little twist, too.  The dinosaur wants the child to show him how to be a boy...
