Why read it?

1 author picked Dino Deegan and the Unpleasant Class as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A great book with a wonderful message and beautiful illustrations by Dr. Robyn.

This should be a classroom tool to teach children about friendship, being kind, and including others in the fun.

From Kim's list on for dinosaur fans.
