Trouble at the Dinosaur Cafe
by: Brian Moses
Illustrations by: Garry Parsons
Age: K-2

With bullying becoming more prominent in school and even more talked about, this book would be great for a lesson about how to treat others. The book uses different types of dinosaurs (The T-REX as the bully) and their specific traits to show different ways to fend-off bullies and stick up for friends (without using violence). This book is great for a dinosaur unit as it covers a descriptive end of the subject with exciting pictures and graphic text. This is a sure hit to get kids excited about dinosaurs or to teach about how to be a good friend to other classmates. Either way, the book has vibrant colors and illustrations and even more enhanced text that will keep children engaged.
