As it turns out, dino pets of any kind have their own set of complications. In this story a young boy happened upon a Dino Pets store, and so begins the plot: 'I got a dino for a pet, the BIGGEST dino I could get.' One can imagine the problems about to arise, so it is not surprising when the boy needs to change his choice of pet. It's difficult to decide which pet is the best, especially when it's a comparison of dinosaur pets. This is a fun, imaginative, and educational book.more I only rate this four out of five stars because the rhythm is sometimes uneven. Kendall’s bright and friendly illustrations really bring the story to life and don’t make the dinosaurs seem scary.

Kids may enjoy listening to the rhyme in Dino Pets and seeing the funny scenes when the dinosaurs interact with humans. I like that it shows an assortment of dinosaurs that are not often used in other books, and an author’s note at the back tells the name of each dinosaur featured in the book as well as some information about it. He runs out of dinosaurs to get from the pet shop and is sad, but in the end, all the dinos come back to him because, “No one likes to sleep alone.” This is a cute story about trying to find just the right pet that adds in the clever turn of the pets being dinosaurs. He picks the biggest dino, the smallest, the longest, the scariest, but either they don’t fit in his house, they run away, or they frighten his family. Dino Pets follows a young boy who takes home all different kinds of dinosaurs for pets, but none of them works out. I had used Dino Pets with one- and two-year-olds during our unit on dinosaurs, and they always enjoyed it.
