Customer Reviews

Something Appealing..

We borrowed this book from our library for my four-year old granddaughter, who fell in love with it. I was impressed with how well it had weathered the abuse of years in a public library system. Now that we have our own, my two-year old grandson loves it, too. There's something about it that appeals to both children, although neither is much of a dinosaur lover. Perhaps it is simply the "touch and feel" interaction. I recommend it for toddlers; our little ones love it.

Dinosaurs (Touchy Feely)

My 3 year old daughter is autistic and loves this book. She likes to feel the different textures. We read this book over and over again everyday. She just loves it.

outstanding quality and multiple textures

This book is really well made. The pages are a quarter inch thick cardboard, so I can leave it out all the time for my 10 month old son to play and look at without worring about him destroying it. Each page has multiple textures (fuzzy, bumpy, bristly, smooth, shiny, rough ect), and the illustrations are VERY colorful and fun. He really enjoys this book. The only negative remark I want to mention is that the text is not very interesting; "This dinosaur was enormous... and these dinosaurs were tiny." So, eventually your children may grow out of it. I'm still giving it 5 stars though. It's definitely one of the best I've found in touchy feely books for young readers. ***"Mermaids" and "Trucks" are two other Usborne touchy feely books that are along the same lines and very good.
