Caillou: The Dinosaur Museum

I was so excited to share this book with the boys I nanny because they love Caillou and dinosaurs. They thoroughly enjoyed the book and learned an important skill. This book is not just about dinosaurs, it's also about what to do if you get separated from your family or caregiver. The boys loved the illustrations and the story, so much so that we immediately had to read it two more times. I am grateful to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to share this story with the boys I care for in exchange for an honest review. I recommend this book for ages 2 to 5 to enjoy.

I absolutely love these little stories of Caillou. Reasons, teachings and morals behind every solid story.

This one identifies who to speak to, and what to do if you get separated/ lost from your mommy and daddy.

The illustrations are fabulous.

Thank you netgalley for giving me a copy in exchange for an honest review.

I loved Caillou when I was little and throughout the whole time I read this very short book, I was hearing their voices.

A very cute book with an important message about staying put where your parents tell you when you get lost so they can find you again. Looking forward to reading the rest in the series.

This Caillou title will be welcomed by preschoolers. In it, Caillou and his stuffed dinosaur, Rex, visit the natural history museum with their family. With bright primary color illustrations and a simple text, the book answers some basic questions about dinosaurs that kids may have. Caillou learns about dinosaur bones, types of dinosaurs and more.

Over the course of this short book, both Caillou and Rex get lost at different times. Caillou remembers what his family told him to do and is found again without upset. The same happens a bit later for Rex. The message about what to do if separated is a bonus lesson that parents can offer to their children.

This is a fine title in a series with a character that young children enjoy. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this e galley. All opinions are my own.

Caillou and his family go to the natural history museum to look at the dinosaurs. Caillou really enjoys looking at the skeletons and learning about the different kinds of dinosaurs.

When he loses sight of the others, he knows to stay put until Mommy comes back to find him. And when he realizes he forgot Rexy somewhere, Caillou learns about the lost and found, and retraces his steps until he finds his dinosaur friend.

Drawn from episodes of the popular animated television series, the Clubhouse books follow Caillou as he continues to explore the world around him and gain a better understanding of his environment.


To be honest I usually just do reviews for adult books. But when i was offered the chance for This I said what the heck, I read to her anyway. This is a really cute book for kids to encourage them to read. I loved the amazing message this book taught about staying put if you got lost.The Reading level is 3-6 years. It has CUTE pics for the kids to look while you read to them.My and my 4 year old loved it.
Thanks to netgalley Dr letting us red and review this book. All opinions are of my own.

Littles will love the book and the message is invaluable.

Our inexplicably bald main character, Caillou, whom my kids have always LOVED, learns a valuable lesson about what to do when he gets separated from his parents/lost in a public place. In this case, he's in a dinosaur museum which I believe will further engage kiddos!

Thank you to Anne Paradis and Mario Allrd, Chouette Publishing, and NetGalley for giving me this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I have read a few Caillou books now and I was delighted to see that there was a new book out for him that featured a trip to the Dinosaur Museum! This story features the importance of what to do if you get lost in a public place and how you must go to where was agreed/stay where was agreed so your parents can find you. It is 4 stars from me for this one, lovely images in the book and highly recommended!

The kids liked it. They even got the humor of Rexy following the rules of what to do when you are lost. good lessons in an interesting format. By choosing to start with Rexy being forgotten in the house, in the beginning, foreshadowing has been used. Musuem visits and readign about them are always fun.

This cute children's book is about Caillou going to the dinosaur museum with his family. He is excited to be there and see the dinosaurs, especially the on like his stuffed animal, Rexy! Mommy tells Caillou that Rexy would be safe from getting lost in the car but Caillou says he will keep him with him and brings him. During the visit, both Caillou and Rexy get separated from their family and have to use the skills for this situation that they have learned in order to safely wait for them to be found.

This book was great! I read it with my three-year-old son and we loved the plot and the pictures. He will definitely be begging for me to read this one for him again!

The illustration in this book is consistent to the Televised series. I can almost hear this book play out in my mind as I read this book. This book is colorful and has pictures of dinosaur fossils that will keep the attention of 2-3 year olds. The story line is simple for young kids to grasp, having a lesson tied into the book is a great plus. I would have liked it if Mom and Dad gave clear and specific instructions to Caillou about what to do if he gets lost. That is just my opinion. Other than that a simple easy to read book geared to 2-3 year olds.
