That's Not My Dinosaur (Touchy-Feely)

Rating:
Summary: It's ok, but not the most engaging touchy-feely book
Review: Each page of this book shows a white mouse and a different dinosaur, and a part of each dinosaur is touchy-feely. One dinosaur has rough horns, one has bumpy teeth, one has slippery flippers, one has soft spines, and the one on the front has squishy spots.

The book is ok, but the illustrations are not particularly great - the dinos don't have any facial expressions, and they are not doing anything interesting. The mouse doesn't seem to fit in either.

Summary: It was good for about a month or so
Review: I have a 10 month old. I bought this for her when she was 9 months, and she loved it at first, but now she's bored with it. The bright colors and contrast are nice, but there's just not enough for them to sink their teeth into for very long. I would say its good for little babies, 3 months to 9 months.

Summary: Great Idea and Superior Quality
Review: My kids-age 3 and 1, LOVE this book. It features a different dinosaur on every page, with the refrain, "That's not my dinosaur, his..."horns are too rough",then on the next page it will be "flippers are too slippery," etc., all with the appropriately textured body part. Then on the last page you finally find "my" dinosaur. What makes this better than the standard touch and feel books out there is 1) Durability. The binding is plastic and the pages are super strong cardboard--my other board books are disintegrating but not this one 2)Variety of textures--much better than my "Touch and Feel Baby Animals," or "Wild Animals." 3)Adjectives--while babies and young toddlers can chew on it and touch the textures, older toddlers love learning the adjectives that go along: rough, scratchy, shiny, slippery, soft, etc." 4)Theme: toddlers love having the wrong dinosaur, and finding the right one at the end. (Trust me)The reason I gave 4 not 5 stars is dinosaurs are not the most exciting thing--I'm on-line today buying a baby gift and I'm going to get "That's not my Puppy," or "Kitten" or "Lion."

Summary: Great book for little babies
Review: This was the first book I could read to my son. It is short, which is good for the limited attention span of the 3-4 month old, is so cute, and has interesting, bright simple pictures. He likes grabbing at the pages, too.
