The cover is really pretty and pops out. I love all the colors. It's very child appropriate to say the least. I think the characters are all super cute and adorable! I love how each of them was given their very own unique personality! There were no problems [with grammar] here at all. This book is very cute and adorable and that many children will fall in love with it. I bet the rest of the series will be just as cute as this book was!

ALL DINO-BUDDIES BOOKS ARE CONSISTENTLY GOOD READS - THIS ONE IS NO EXCEPTION.
All of the Dino-Buddies books are consistently good reads for parents and children, and this one is no exception. Each book features one of the buddies a little more prominently and some of the skills they have. In this story, one of the Dinos builds a wooden burro and the buddies all play with it. There are some great themes of creativity, imagination, and playing together in this episode. My daughter really engages with the pictures while I read her the story.

GREAT FOR STORY TIME!
The Dino-buddies series are great for ‘story-time’ with your young reader. The art work is very colorful and appealing to my toddler who stays engaged with the images while I read the story. In this story the Dino-buddies go camping, and swim, cook out, and tell stories around the camp fire. It is a fun, quick read that is good for both girls and boys.

WHAT A GREAT STORY TO TEACH THAT CHEATERS NEVER WIN!
The Dino-Buddies are getting ready for their first game of the season, but they have to play against the Dino-BuLLies, who cheat, a lot. What should they do? Should the Dino-Buddies sink to their level and also cheat? Or remember their motto C&C, Confidence and Courage? What a great story for children to teach them that Cheaters never win!

CUTE LITTLE STORY – MY SON LOVED IT!
Such a cute little story. It spends most of it introducing the Dino-Buddies which I'm guessing will be in all the books. Baxter's having a party and is making sure he didn't forget to invite anyone. I gave this to my son for his birthday and he loved it.

MY NIECE GAVE IT ‘5 DINO-STARS’ !!!
I read this book with my little niece, and when I asked how many stars to give it, she said "Five Dino-stars!" So there you have it, this book gets five Dino-stars. Then I asked her what the best part of the story was, and she thought it was Baxter's party when all the Dino-Buddies sang and danced. The colorful pictures really kept her attention, and she really liked the story as well. As children's books go, this one is one I could stand reading to her over and over...we've already read it three times over the weekend. Cute story, great illustrations, and she really enjoys it. I definitely recommend this book to anyone with children.

LIKE ‘NEVER GIVE UP’ IN MY SON’S CAP
I loved reading this book to my little cousins that play t-ball. They enjoyed the story and the illustrations. The part in the book where it had C & C on the glove reminded me of when my son played ball, he had written "never give up" inside his hat. I love that this book has so many ways to teach children things about sharing, bullying, confidence and much more! Thanks for a book that will stay in our book bin for a very long time!
