The Littlest Dinosaur – Precious Picture Book Review

Good morning, everyone! First off, I will present a “squealing disclaimer” for this review — it was pitched to R&R Tours reviewers as “the CUTEST post ever” — and oh my gosh, is that ever the truth! This is such a sweet, heartwarming little story of a T-Rex who’s having trouble making friends with the other dinosaurs, because of course they expect him to eat them. Plot twist: Ty is a vegan, and when he invites the herbivores over for dinner, they’re absolutely not on the menu! In the end, Ty’s new friends come to realize there are exceptions to the rule, and that it’s worth taking a chance on something different — as it might just bring you (and someone else!) happiness.

This is an easy read for young children, as the text font is clear and there aren’t a ton of words per page. The illustrations are lovely, using soft shades and a minimalist style. I was so excited to receive this review copy, and read it to Muffin right away. (He enjoyed it, too.) We’re nowhere near vegans in my family, but I will never criticize a message of inclusion and acceptance, especially one presented in such a light, straightforward manner as The Littlest Dinosaur.

The book is available in physical or digital copy via Amazon, and we’re having a giveaway on this blog tour to try your luck with! I do recommend this one for ages 4 and up (and their parents, too!).
