Dave and his dad go to the dinosaur museum. Dave's dad insists that dinosaurs are dead, but Dave begins to believe otherwise when some of the museum exhibits wink at him, try to tickle him, and eat his lunch. Dad is in for a surprise in this cliff-hanger ending. Cute and simple story, but the artwork is what really makes the book, especially the "Mind the..." signs at the museums.

Dave and his dad are taking a trip through a local museum, looking at each of the dinosaurs. As Dave ask questions about what he sees the dinosaurs doing, his father insists it must just be Dave's imagination. But is it? A fun story to share. Recommended for Kindergarten through second grade.

Quite fun, I loved the dinosaurs personalities and the very small signs in the pictures.

This would make a great story time book. I love the style of the artwork with its angles and open space. And the little surprise at the end made me laugh out loud and say "WHAT??"

Cute but I thought the ending could have been a little better. It didn't seem as funny as I thought it could have been. I liked the pronunciation on each dinosaurs pedestal-that was very helpful!
