This book was so fun!! I wasn't expecting the ending at all, but I was very happily *surprised*. I think that this book will do a multitude of things for young readers:
1. It will subtly teach them how to respect others' boundaries while still being themselves. They will see how Surprise Dinosaur did this, and they will follow his example.
2. It will make them laugh! There were even a few moments when I chuckled, so I know that kids will be giggling often when reading this book.
3. It will entertain them in an effective way. Relating to my other two points, this book is fun for kids while also serving a purpose other than just being a fun read. There is no shortage of interesting parts in this book, and little ones will be entertained from start to finish.

Great book. Bravo!

Surprise Dinosaur! is a picture book about, well, a dinosaur who likes to surprise people. Unfortunately for him, not everyone likes a surprise. He tries out new ways to surprise people who enjoy it without scaring those who don't. It is a silly story that will have younger kiddos laughing.

Thanks to Sourcebooks Kids and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

Cute little story of a friendly dinosaur showing up and surprising people, and trying to find the best way to do that. Super cute and silly, my kids will love this story.
