Reviews
The digital artwork includes intense pinks, reds, and purples that reinforce the customary Valentine holiday color scheme. As usual for this series, the illustrations are well composed, which draws the viewer’s eye around the page to all the dinosaur action that surrounds the bubbly narrative rhyming couplets. VERDICT A roarsome addition to your Valentine and ‘Dino-Holiday’ collection.
School Library Journal
Popular dino pals are back, this time full of love…The large, plodding dinosaurs are positively buoyant. They are as jaunty as the bouncy rhymes that propel this love story forward. Close inspection of the illustrations reveals fun dinosaur puns, some of which may go over children’s heads (the movie theater is playing When Hadrosaur Met Stegosaurus).A sprightly Valentine romp to fill out holiday collections.
