Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com Hilarious! | Customer Rating: | | I should say that i bought this for my 1.5yr old, but lets be honest, i bought it for me. I think this book is pure genius and will read it to my little one for years to come. A wonerful read. | Entertaining and Informative! | Customer Rating: | If you ever wanted to know the real reason the dinosaurs died out, this is the book for you.
Brightly illustrated with wonderfully amusing drawings and a memorable rhyming text, this book tells the story of the battle between first the cavemen and the dinosaurs for pants supremacy, and then the battle between the dinosaurs themselves.
My two year old son absolutely adores this book and roars with laughter at all the ridiculous pictures. There is something inherently funny about the word pants, which always sends him into peals, but convulses him when added to pictures of very fierce monsters struggling to run about in very tight pants.
Superb! | Laugh out loud funny. | Customer Rating: | My 6 year old has just managed to read this aloud to my 4 year old (just with a little help with the Dinosaur names) and they were both laughing hysterically at the fabulous story. There are lots of brilliantly hilarious illustrations in this very large paperback edition to keep young children amused too.
The front cover is great and the 'Dinosaurs Love Underpants' is in sparkly blue lettering. It is a gift giving quality edition.
There are 24 main pages of story with a 4 line self contained poem on every other page. They have great rhyming and rhythm and together they form a brilliant story explaining a funny theory of why the dinosaurs became extinct.
The poem starts:
Dinosaurs were all wiped out, A long way back in history. No one knows quite how or why, Now this book solves the mystery....
It all began when cavemen, Felt embarrassed in the nude, So someone dreamt up underpants, To stop them looking rude.
And so it goes on in a really entertaining story.
Highly recommended. | Colourful fun with pant-clad dinosaurs for preschoolers! | Customer Rating: | This book is based on same premise as the successful Aliens love underpants from the same author/illustrator duo, that small children will find the incongruity between everyday pants and imaginary creatures wearing them very funny, and of course they do. But whereas many follow up books are more of the same, this has a very different story which, in my opinion, is the stronger of the two (though no less silly). Bright amusing illustrations of dinosaurs dressed in flamboyant and colourful pants accompany decent rhyming verse: "Triceratops was happy, wearing pants on every horn, Til Styracosaurus snatched them, and they ended up all torn." Pants are so prized that squabbles erupt and it's dinosaur underwear anarchy as they fight to the death. [If you are a prehistory stickler, please note that in this story leopard-skin-pant wearing cavemen co-exist with the Jurassic giants which is archaeologically incorrect and the fluffy pink knickers may not accurately reflect the fashions of the dinosaur era.] | Another Winner for 3yr olds | Customer Rating: | | My daughter loved "Alien's love underpants" and while this isn't quite as good, it is entertaining and the illustrations are great. My 3 year old has a real sense of humour and finds these books hillarious |
