Reviews"The kids were in hysterics reading this book... The story is really easy to read and builds up to a dramatic boom with Dinosaur. It will definitely keep children of all ages engaged and wanting to read it again and again. The illustrations are great." www.yummymummyflabbytummy.co.uk "It's a great book for reading aloud to little ones ... I highly recommend it for kids aged two and up." -- Jennifer Muirhead www.weekendnotes.com "The Dinosaur that Pooped a Planet was really funny." www.annamariesbookreviews.blogspot.co.uk "Poo, planets and pandemonium - definitely a recipe for resounding success with small children who will laugh uproariously at the galactic gallivanting of the boy and his pet, hilariously portrayed and documented in tongue teasing verse that will have many adults in fits too." jillrbennett.wordpress.com "My beautiful boy absolutely ADORES this book, and asks to have it read to him repeatedly." www.dearbeautifulboy.com
