Can I Have a Tyrannosaurus Rex, Dad? Can I? Please!
Can I Have a Tyrannosaurus Rex, Dad? Can I? Please!
Children will love this hilarious sequel to Can I Have A Stegosaurus, Mom? Can I? Please!?, a delightful fantasy of a little boy and his would-be pet Tyrannosaurus Rex. The big dinosaur could help get parking spaces at the mall, rescue cats from trees, and be TONS of fun at birthday parties!
Come and eat it up! Each double-page spread shows a line from the song, with a different animal for each day of the week, eating a different food. Most of the animals are eating a predictable food (a fox with a chicken, a pelican with a fish), but there are some nonsensical scenes (a snake with spaghetti, an elephant eating "zoop"). Overall, the verse has a catchy, cumulative rhythm, but it's the dazzling illustrations--gorgeously displayed with a mastery of design and form--that make this a simple, yet memorable, picture book.
The Cat in the Hat and Other Dr Seuss Favorites (Audiobook)
This collection includes 12 audio books.
The all-star cast of readers–Kelsey Grammer, Dustin Hoffman, Walter Matthau, John Cleese, and others–promises an entertaining program. Nearly a dozen Seuss stories are read with nearly as many artistic approaches. Billy Crystal is over the top; John Cleese has impeccable comic timing; Ted Danson seems unimpressed by the Lorax. But Grammer comes across best. He gets the rhymes and delivers the verse with style. His energy, like Seuss’s, never flags and never seems forced.
Jon Scieszka, the First National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature, brings his lovable Trucktown characters to READING STREET. Get Set, Roll! Readers allow children to practice their phonics skill. They enchant and engage children while developing phonological awareness.
One Odd Day is a humorous, rhythmic, read-aloud story about a boy who awakens to find that everything around him is “odd.” He has one shoe, three sleeves on his shirt, and his dog has five legs ... Things are no better at school, either. Will his odd day end when he goes to bed that night? Children and adults will delight in finding all the “odd” items and numbers hidden in the art. Reading Level: Grade K-3
