Delightful Day with a Dinosaur
The book features Danny, a young boy whose day in the museum gets much better when he meets a real Dinosaur. The two spend the day together, heading downtown, to the zoo, and finally spending some time playing with Danny’s neighborhood friends.I remember enjoying this book as a kid, and it holds up well today. While there is really nothing in the way of plot, the pictures and words, sometimes more captions to the pictures than anything else, tell of a delightful day together for these two new friends. The pictures are a bit dated since the book came out in the 1950’s, but I doubt kids notice or care. Instead, they’ll be caught up in the fun of spending a day with a dinosaur, smiling and laughing at some of the situations along the way.

Danny Helped Me Learn to Read
I first reviewed Syd Hoff's "Danny and the Dinosaur" as a seven year-old. In second grade, we called it a book report, but my feelings on the book haven't changed. Danny's adventure includes a visit to the ballpark, which still has me smiling. Also, like hiding an elephant, Danny discovers playing hide-and-seek with a dinosaur can be difficult.While the writing and drawings aren't on par with "Make for Ducklings," or "Mike Milligan and the Steam Shovel," it capably compares to H. A. Rey's "Curious George" series. "Clifford, the Big Red Dog" readers will connect with Danny playing with an oversized lizard.The text is simple, and the story is sweet, unencumbered by the intentional messaging found in many modern children's books. It is just a fun, silly story. It helped me learn to read and to love books. Maybe Danny's tale can help your son or daughter read too.I fully recommend "Danny and the Dinosaur" by Syd Hoff.Anthony Trendl

Mi libro favorito de pequeño!
Habiendo nacido y crecido en Estados Unidos, este es uno de los primeros libros que recuerdo haber podido leer por mi propia cuenta, recuerdo como soñaba por vivir lo que vivió Danny, y tener un amigo dinosaurio para mi solo! Es exactamente el mismo contenido, los colores son mucho más brillantes, pero no hay cambio alguno ni en la redacción ni en las ilustraciones. Otro libro cortito pero indispensable para mis futuros hijos! Oh la melancolía de recordar mi inocente pasado...

Good book
The terms need to be updated but overall, the story is good. It's an easy read and kept my toddler entertained.

My grandsons love it. But
My grandsons love it. But, they are much too young to read. It's only the "Dino" character & pictures and story-telling/reading by an adult, which makes it interesting. All other books of this series, however, are quite repetitive.

not bad
Pretty easy for kids to learn to read. The story was a little bit dull though, not enough happening to keep my kids fully entertained. Good price though
