Now young children can read about dinosaurs—even how to say their names—by themselves. "Shouts of welcome will greet this new addition to the I Can Read series." (Horn Book) "Excellent illustrations. A virtual necessity for any library that serves primary-grade children." (School Library Journal) Peggy Parish is best known for her stories about Amelia Bedelia, the literal-minded housekeeper. Arnold Lobel's beloved books include four in the Frog and Toad series. Dinosaur Time is a Level One I Can Read book, which means it’s perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences. Whether shared at home or in a classroom, the short sentences, familiar words, and simple concepts of Level One books support success for children eager?to start reading on their own.
