Review Quotes

"Boynton's signature style showcases a restless baby dinosaur who can't go to bed without his (or her) security blanket in this charming large-trim board book...The book is cute without being cloying, thanks to the authorial voice, which softens from stern to sympathetic, and the dino's comic desperation. This light, witty treatment of the eternal subjects of the 'blanky' and the bedtime tantrum will make a welcome addition to the bedside bookshelf. And with its felt inserts, it's a book kids can really cozy up to."-- "Publishers Weekly"
