Description

From author Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen and illustrator Zachariah OHora, Tyrannosaurus Wrecks is the hilarious story of a rambunctious T. rex at preschool

In this read-along picture book, a classroom full of young dinosaurs plays with toys, does art projects, and reads books. But each activity is another opportunity for the over-enthusiastic Tyrannosaurus Rex to wreak havoc.

Parents and young children will love the call-and-response nature of the book, and young dinosaur fans will appreciate the listing (and pronunciation guide) for a dozen different dino species. The format is extra vertical in order to accommodate T. Rex's biggest messes.

"Punchy writing, an equally in-your-face palette, and OHora's characteristically brash painting style make this as much a stompalong as a readaloud." --Publishers Weekly

"Warmly colored with childlike bodies and emotive faces, Ohora's dinosaurs are among the cutest you will come across in children's books." --Booklist

Reviews

"Repetitive phrasing "Tyrannosaurus wrecks" will be repeated with relish and laughter. Primary colors of yellow, red, and green are eye-catching for the board book crowd and for any older listening siblings as well."-- "School Library Journal"
