Review Quotes

PRAISE FOR DINOSAUR VS. SCHOOL

". . .Shea's concept of "winning" at school clearly has to do with self-confidence, determination and, sometimes, teamwork-a winning idea indeed."--Kirkus Reviews

PRAISE FOR DINOSAUR VS. SCHOOL

* "School is no match for Shea's rambunctious, ever-confident red dino, starring in his fifth picture book. Shea's illustrations are as unruly and imaginative as ever in this pitch-perfect, egocentric take on living (school) life to the max."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

PRAISE FOR DINOSAUR VS. SCHOOL

"Shea's frantic, colorful sketches . . vibrate with toddler energy. Children who have come to trust Dinosaur's perpetual, collaborative victories will welcome his comforting message about heading to school for the first time."--Booklist Online
