Nestled inside a brightly illustrated box is the best-selling Dinosaur Roar! board book, along with a 51/2 inch cloth dinosaur finger puppet with jaws that open and close. The child-safe, washable finger puppet is just the right size for small hands and big imaginations. Dinosaur devotees can play with the little lizard, acting out the opposites they learn about from the rhyming text of the book: dinosaur fast, dinosaur slow, dinosaur above, and dinosaur below. This book-and-puppet package adds up to prehistoric playtime fun! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great bookMy two year old daughter has had this book for just over a year and it's still one of her favourites. I think the puppet is supposed to be a finger puppet for the parent so it will be too small for your child to fit their whole hand into. We quickly lost the puppet but the book is great. She's memorized the whole thing and it's one of the few books where she finishes thesentences for me. Rating:  - Writing/Illustration Excellent, Physical construction poorWe bought Dinosaur Roar! for our kids becuase it was a favorite from the library. The illustrations and concepts are excellent, but this version that I ordered from Amazon is poorly constructed. I wouldn't call it a board book as much as a think card book. The pages were warped when it arrived and the puppet is too small for my 20 lb toddler to get her hand into. I still recommend the book, but see if you can get ahold of a better made older addition. Baring that, definitely pass on the ... Read More Rating: - Simple text and gorgeous illustrations capture preschoolers.This book captured my almost 3 year old at the local library. A hundred or so readings later, he had completely memorized the text, complete with play acting and characterizations of the various opposites presented. The book is beautifully and colorfully illustrated, with a simple rhytmic text pairing opposites (such as ROAR and Squeek, clean and slimy, etc.). Now that its back at the library, he's still reciting it. It fully engages all the senses and imagination of a very young child.
