Penguin, 2013I liked this book. Fun. Whimsical. With a touch of adventure. Any young boy will like it.
It's about a dinosaur who loves to be dirty, mucky, grimy and the like. He starts by having a dirty snout, and, as you may guess, he gets dirtier and filthier from there.
Each part that gets dirty then has a little verb filled refrain to go with it.
Such is the lyrical nature of this book.
The down side: I know that the dinosaur is meant to be painted with dirt. But it simply looks like poo to me. That someone had illustrated the pictures and then wiped the contents of a dirty nappy on them. In this regard I really struggle reading the book.... or even touching it for that matter.
However, it is a book worth a read. And let me tell you, it's a good laugh that boys ages 2 to 100 will giggle whilst reading.
