Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Stay Friends?

Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Stay Friends?"The 10th dinosaur outing for Yolen and Teague playfully addresses the minefield of school friendships, as always cleverly subbing in outsized dinosaur antics for the gigantic feelings in every little kid's body... who can resist when dinosaur buddies share a sincere, well-earned hug?" -- Kirkus ReviewsPraise for How Do Dinosaurs Stay Safe?"This beloved series hit the ground running, and it's still going strong." --Booklist"As in previous outings, Teague's artwork steals the show, the realism of the scenes and human figures juxtaposed with the giant, though childish, dinos. Labels in the illustrations and endpapers will help dino mavens identify their favorites. Don'ts and Do's in a familiar formula go down easily for fans and will provide a good conversation starter for parents." --Kirkus ReviewsPraise for How Do Dinosaurs Say I'M MAD?"Yolen understands the value of the book beyond its surface entertainments, offering a note about the realities of anger and the value of apology. And Teague upholds his end of the bargain, carefully attending to the authenticity of the dinosaurs on display, and providing a diversity of human families as well. A solid, welcome addition to the series." --Booklist Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night?An ALA Notable BookA School Library Journal Best Book of the YearA Booklist Editor's ChoiceA New York Times, Publishers Weekly, and Booksense bestseller."A delight from start to finish; better buy more than one."--BooklistPraise for How Do Dinosaurs Get Well Soon?A Bank Street College of Education Best Book of the YearA Parent's Choice Award winner* "An excellent choice for story hours."--Booklist, starred review* "The perfect prescription for the crankily bedridden."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
