How Do Dinosaurs Stay Safe? by Jane Yolen - ESSENTIAL

Yolen, Jane How Do Dinosaurs Stay Safe? Illustrated by Mark Teague.  PICTURE BOOK.  Blue Sky (Scholastic), 2015.  $17.  

Are dinosaurs reckless in their everyday?  No, they listen carefully and play hard while staying safe.  I love the juxtaposition of these gigantic creatures doing things that small children also do.  I think this makes it easier to talk to a child about what risky behavior looks like versus safer behavior.
