Critics Review

“Dinosaurs and vehicular modes of transportation meld in symbiotic bliss. Only the extinct would fail to enjoy this kicky amalgamation of dinos, deals, and automobiles.” – Kirkus Reviews

“Animated text makes for fun reading and read-alouds, while Biggs’ cartoonish, blocky illustrations with retro flair lend further humor and liveliness. Abundant witty details great and small throughout, like the car lot’s ever-changing signs, amplify the laughs. A delightful blend of dinosaurs with things that go, sure to entertain aficionados of both.” —Booklist

“Dinosaurs and vehicular modes of transportation meld in symbiotic bliss. Only the extinct would fail to enjoy this kicky amalgamation of dinos, deals, and automobiles.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Smashed cars, expert kids, dinosaurs! Customer satisfaction guaranteed!” —The Horn Book Magazine

“The dialogue between Otto and his customers moves the story along quickly and gives readers opportunities to practice their dinosaur read-aloud voices. Illustrations feature gigantic and colorful dinosaurs squeezing themselves into tiny little cars, often with the sharp bits poking out. Silly and raucous, this is a perfect preschool storytime book.” —School Library Journal
