Book summaryA little boy and his grandfather are touring the dinosaur exhibit at a museum. Vivian French presents the child's relentless questions in verse: "How were his teeth, his terrible teeth?/ Were they sharp? Were they long?/ Were they terribly strong?" The inquisitive lad wants to know if the tyrannosaurus rex tracked the dinosaurs it killed and ate, whether its eggs were found in nests, and how it grew. The boy and his grandfather gaze raptly at dioramas of the dinosaurs rambling and feasting before winding up in the gift shop. Often the old man has no answers for the excited questions, since it was "millions and millions of years ago," but he eventually suggests that perhaps the boy might make discoveries that solve some of the mysteries when he gets older. Media reviews"Kids just starting down the dinosaur path will appreciate the gentle blend of fact and companionship." |
