Fast-paced, rhyming commentary and exuberant illustrations put readers right in the action. Sure to thrill dinosaur lovers and sports fans alike!

    • 4/5
      I recently received an ARC of this book and read it with my 5 year old son.

      His thoughts:
      1. He loved the pictures. They were bright and full of action and kept his interest throughout.
      2. He loved the competition aspect of the story. He picked a favorite team and rooted for them through the entire story just as if he were watching a real football game on tv.
      3. This book made him feel like he had something in common with his dad who loves football.

      My thoughts:
      1. I agree that the illustrations were fantastic. They were colorful and made us laugh.
      2. The story itself is cute and is exciting when read aloud - reminiscent of a sports announcer calling plays during a live game. This really kept my son engaged and excited about the book.
      3. There are quite a few football terms that many kids - younger children in particular - may not understand (for example: "Holding. Penalty declined," "tailgating," "coin toss" among others). My son did not understand all of these terms but we were able to have a conversation afterward about what they meant. For some kids this is a good opportunity to become more familiar with the game. For others this may detract from the story.
      4. As other reviewer's have noted, this would not be a book I would recommend for beginning readers. There are lots of words that are not easy to "sound-out" - the dinosaur names in particular. I don't think this necessarily detracts from the book as long as you understand that before purchasing. I think this book is best when read aloud to the child.

      Overall this was a fun read and would be enjoyed by any sports and/or dinosaur fan.
    • 3/5
      A silly way of introducing names of dinosaurs and how they "live." Fun story for most ages and even just as a short read can be very informative, but I wasn't thrilled by the story line, possibly boys will like it more.
    • 2/5
      Merging two popular subjects into a fun, lively story.
    • 1/5
      I couldn’t even read it was Chinese
      It was weird
