Description

Getting into an elevator to who-knows where with a T-Rex they'd only just met was risky, maybe even loony. But they'd never get another chance at such an adventure.
Twins Robbie and Abby get more than they bargained for when they imagine a museum T-Rex back to life. Soon they're on an adventure through the Cretaceous Era with dinosaurs of every shape and size and not all of them are friendly. But they are surprisingly helpful. Can you guess their names from the clue-filled poems they sing?

I'M ONE OF THE SMALLEST DINOSAURS
ALL THE BIG GUYS WANT TO SNATCH ME
BUT THAT WILL NOT BE EASY
CAUSE FIRST THEY'VE GOTTA CATCH ME.

About the Author


For over 50 years Howard Eisenberg, the Toddler Poet Laureate, has written hundreds of articles—often with his late wife, Arlene Eisenberg— for national publications. They include New York Times Magazine, Saturday Evening Post, Reader’s Digest, Cosmopolitan, Parade, The Wall Street Journal, Parenting Magazine, Baby Talk and dozens of others. Additionally he’s written six adult books, four co-authored with Arlene, three Guess Who books for children, and scripts for radio and TV.


His latest book? A collection of wry toddler poems entitled Adorable Scoundrels, inspired by Arlene’s admonition that, “If you’re going to have a toddler, you’ll need a sense of humor.”


Howard agrees with Yogi Berra that, “Life ain’t over till it’s over.” He smiles, “I plan to keep going ’til I don’t know whether I’m coming or going.” He’s collaborating on a baseball screenplay with his son, Evan. His son also contributed music and dialog to Howard’s musical comedy, The Million Dollar Bet.
