It will make a terrific nutcracker too! There are oodles of uses for a dinosaur -- from a fine umbrella to an excellent kite and a dandy pillow, not to mention a reliable burglar alarm and the perfect excuse to forget your homework. This delightfully absurd exploration of the domestic uses of dinosaurs -- and the things dinos just aren't good for at all -- is guaranteed to tickle funny bones and spark imaginations. If you read carefully, you'll learn how to make your dinosaur last a very long time.\u003cb\u003eSELECTION - \u003ci\u003eToday’s Parent\u003c\/i\u003e’s list of Top 15 Picture Books, 2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePRAISE FOR \u003ci\u003eIf You Happen to Have a Dinosaur\u003c\/i\u003e:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It’s bright and breezy.\" —\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"Buried in all the rambunctious fun, the story leaves young ones with a message that can be applied to real-life situations: if you take the time to think critically and creatively, you can make effective and logical choices.\" —\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"There aren’t many books that have the courage to be this silly . . .
