Dinosaur Starts School

A young dinosaur is scared of starting school, but step by step he finds it is fun.

Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

It's the first day of school, and Dinosaur has a lot to be worried about, from the size of the building to the yucky food in the school cafeteria to the mess he made during painting time. Fortunately for Dinosaur, he has a small human companion at his side ready to counter any fears with a logical and supportive response.... Allwright's paintings are muted and full of peaceful light, offering a pleasing tonal accompaniment to the story.
