Product Description
From Booklist
"The game begins at half past six, / when dinos grab their hockey sticks." Rhyming couplets set the scene for a fantastical sports event: a hockey game played between opposing dinosaur teams: the Meat-Eaters and the Veggiesaurs. Gott's action-filled paintings amplify the sports moves and the players' comically exaggerated expressions, from the scowling face off between T. Rex and Tricera to the jubilant postgame celebration, covered by eager dino newscasters. Kids new to hockey may need help visualizing terms such as assist and check, but even if they don't have a full grasp of specifics, many children will be caught up by the inventive premise, the slapstick humor, and the energy in the words and pictures. By sorting teams by herbivores and carnivores, this also sneaks in a science lesson that is reinforced with a scoreboard visual. A final page promises a soccer-field sequel. Engberg, Gillian

This review is from: Dino-Hockey (Library Binding)
This is a very cute book. My boys love both dinosaurs and hockey and this book is the perfect mix of both. My 2 year old and 6 year old both love it, and it is fun for mommy and daddy to read. The pictures are great!

This review is from: Dino-Hockey (Library Binding)
We have had this book about 30 hours, and I think we've read it 15 times. My 3 year old, who is hockey obsessed, can't get enough of this book. It has great illustrations - and as a bonus, we are learning the names of dinosaurs. It also has a couple good sports lessons - never give up, play fair and yet, its only a game. I think that this is guarateed to be a family favorite.

Dinos for hockey lovers...,
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dino-Hockey (Library Binding)
My 2 year old is a hockey nut. We got this for him and he loved it instantly. The book has wonderful illustrations and identifies all of the different kinds of dinosaurs. The wording (rhyming) makes it so fun to read that my 3 year old daughter likes it to even though it's not pink.
