Since we've been to Dinosaur Valley State Park and I accidentally found this at the library, I thought this would be a cute quick read. It's a shame the animals have to be so afraid of humans.

Bluebonnet at Dinosaur Valley State Park by -Casad_ Mary Brooke
I listened to this book on tape but it sttes it's a colorful children's book.
Thought this might be about a local state park in CT that we've traveled to.
Bluebonnet is an armadillo and they travel to the state park and he finds Spike-the last known dinosaur. She follows the tracks left.
She discovers many other creatures...
Lots of Texas history is divulged and the author makes it easy for children to understand.
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).
