Creative and fun, a must for dinosaur lovers

This very clever story fills each page with the unexpected and makes full use of the idea of actually being able to pick out and own a dinosaur, without ever suggesting that owning a dinosaur would be unheard of where Alex lives. The authors and illustrators really let their imagination flow while molding a good and well rounded story. My three year-old usually wants to read it at least three times in a row every time we read it, and as a parent, I think she's making a good choice!
