Longing to be a superhero and declaring himself Super Dino, young Brendan the dinosaur begins to fear that his new status is getting in the way of his friendships, in a story that captures the foibles... This description may be from another edition of this product.
My daughter went through a tough phase right before she turned four that involved a lot of emotion and difficult expressing her frustrations, anger, sadness, etc. This series of books was recommended to me by her preschool teacher, and she LOVED them. They are very relatable for young kids and also communicate the lessons I was trying to teach her about articulating her feelings versus throwing a tantrum. I'd definitely recommend them.
colorful, fun and teaches a lesson

The very active main character 'super dino' lets his imagination run wild. Unfortunately, his activities are less than appreciated by his classmates. Mrs. Dee (the teacher) with the help of his classmates show him how to become a 'super dino' that everyone likes.The illustrations are great. The interaction of all the characters are realistic. These are scenes you have seen played in your own back yard. The kids get angry, thoughtfull, helpful, hurt and happy. I especially enjoyed the part were Mrs. Dee asked the children for their suggestions on how to solve the problem. She encouraged them to come up with the solution instead of giving one to them.I share this book with my 3 year old son and 5 year old daughter. Many times we substitute the names of the teacher and children for real characters in their life. Of course my son is always 'super dino'.
