If a T. Rex Crashes Your Birthday Party

by Jill Esbaum, Dasha Tolstikova
OVERVIEW
You never know what will happen when a T. Rex crashes your birthday party. Sure, you'll be super excited when he turns up at your door. But then he’ll stomp. He’ll ROAR. He’ll look at you as if he’s wondering how you taste with a little mustard. In the end, though, you just may find yourself asking him to come back next year! This delightfully whimsical picture book has a fun twist kids will love.
PRAISE
“Playful, doodlelike illustrations capture the curiosity of a silly scenario that turns out to be equal parts poignant and giggle-worthy. Evenly dispersed pictures and text punctuate the antics of the dinosaur and his human partygoer buddies, creating a hullabaloo that ends with a sweet, surprising twist. . . . Reading this crowd-pleaser aloud may cause clamorous laughter in even the most serious of storytime attendees.” —School Library Journal
