It was a cute story. I was reading it to a group of about 10 kindergarteners at the end of my class. It was a few pages too long and my kids began loosing interest the last quarter of the book. If it was a bit shorter it would be a winner.

a bored dinosaur wanders from the museum on to a ballet stage. the tutu is quite humorous and the we loved the ending. didn't see it as potential readaloud material for me personally but somebody slick could pull it off.

This is a very cute book about a dinosaur. Children will enjoy reading this book, because it has a dinosaur pretending to be a ballerina.
Kiera
Good illustrations. An interesting (but random) story of a very lively T-Rex skeleton.

Fun story about a t-rex who lives in the Natural History Museum. She gets the urge to break free and ends up dancing in a ballet before she goes back to her spot at the Museum.

Just read this with the little one. She checked it out of the library last week. Very cute. And since she's been to the Natural History Museum, she enjoyed the story.
