About this item
A hilarious book about manners for ages 3-6. A little girl is shopping in a grocery store when--surprise!--she meets a dinosaur. Dont worry. The dinosaur is very friendly. Shes polite, too. In this funny story, told in lilting read-aloud rhyme, the girl has numerous opportunities to be helpful to the clumsy shopping dino and demonstrate when to say "thank you," "excuse me," "Im sorry," "Youre welcome," and other niceties of life. Tim Bowerss whimsical illustrations bring an extra dimension of fun to Judy Sierras hilarious picture book fantasy. Altogether, Suppose You Meet a Dinosaur is an entertaining and painless way to show preschoolers why basic manners are a good thing to have.
