About this book

Dinosaurs are the gimmick here, not really the subject. The subjects are, first, antonyms--such as above/below and weak/strong--and then lunch. The paired dinosaurs, in a goofy array of pastels, are almost all smiling, even when the rhyme insists they're "grumpy"--so when they settle down to a lunch with (and not of) each other, the end is satisfying. The pictures and swingy short verses will make this a good group read-aloud, even for the very young. -Booklist These prehistoric monsters are just perfect for the preschool crowds. A natural for story time. -School Library Journal

About Paul Stickland

I am the Author, Illustrator and popup engineer of many children's books. For the past few years, despite a rigorous publishing schedule, I have spent as much time as I can out on the road, giving inspirational talks and fun workshops to children (and their parents) in schools, libraries and literary festivals, from Edinburgh, Cheltenham, even to Glastonbury. I have worked in the UK, Italy and America, in a great diversity of settings, the more challenging the better! The visits start with the simplest of readings, through explanations of the process of creating and producing a children's book, to drawing workshops and hands on pop-up workshops. I am happy to work with all sizes of groups. I have found working with children with special needs to be particularly rewarding. I am a passionate advocate for the world of children's books and as the years pass, I have become more and more drawn to working with and empowering young children to expand their creativity through this magical world. I find this work immensely satisfying and incredibly stimulating and I have been looking for ways to expand this side of my life.
