About this book

How does a dinosaur say "trick or treat"

When walking down with kids down a Halloween street?

Does he stomp on the pumpkins and throw around bits?

Does he fear he will slip and then slide into splits?

It's Halloween time! The streets are filled with kids in costumes, the spooky decorations are out, but our inquisitive and rambunctious dinosaurs are not quite sure about trick or treating...

With a little practice, and some hilarious antics, our prehistoric friends learn some holiday tricks like carving smiling pumpkins, helping witches carry their brooms, and sharing some yummy treats. Join in the hilarity as the bestselling duo Jane Yolen and Mark Teague help young dinosaurs (and readers) have a great time at Halloween!

With over 23 million copies in print, each dino-mite How Do Dinosaurs book is a combination of hilarious situations and sing-song rhymes that show young children how to be more successful every day and in every way. The How Do Dinosaurs series will help children become confident readers while teaching them life lessons. And as an added bonus, the names of the dinosaurs are hidden on each page. Look for all the bestselling How Do Dinosaurs books by Jane Yolen with illustrations by Mark Teague!

Reviews

Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodbye?:

"Fans of any of the previous entries will rejoice at this new addition, which uses exaggeration and humor to help children acknowledge and deal with their dinosaur-sized emotions." -- School Library Journal

Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Choose Their Pets?:

"Yolen's rhymes are jaunty, and, as always, Teague has a field day. His illustrations highlight the unbridled joy these vibrantly colored, lesser-known species of dinos... have playing with a variety of creatures." -- Kirkus Reviews

Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Stay Friends?:

"The 10th dinosaur outing for Yolen and Teague playfully addresses the minefield of school friendships, as always cleverly subbing in outsized dinosaur antics for the gigantic feelings in every little kid's body... who can resist when dinosaur buddies share a sincere, well-earned hug?" -- Kirkus Reviews

Praise for How Do Dinosaurs Stay Safe?:

"This beloved series hit the ground running, and it's still going strong." -- Booklist

"As in previous outings, Teague's artwork steals the show, the realism of the scenes and human figures juxtaposed with the giant, though childish, dinos. Labels in the illustrations and endpapers will help dino mavens identify their favorites. Don'ts and Do's in a familiar formula go down easily for fans and will provide a good conversation starter for parents." -- Kirkus Reviews
