It's tea time and you're all invited. Your hostess is a happy and cheerful dinosaur named Dina who "loves cookies and all kinds of tea." So come along and join the fun as Julia Dweck spins a rhyming tale about Dina's Tea Time.Dina tidies her house and bakes delicious cupcakes as she waits for her guest to arrive. Cookies, scones, and delicious eclairs are brought by the guest, but Dina is certain something is not right. She tells each of her guest "Something is missing. Listen to me. I can't put my finger on what it could be." Will Dina ever figure out the missing ingredient for the perfect tea party?As always, Julia Dweck entertains young readers with her brilliant rhyme and clever story line. Friends coming together to spend a special day is timeless. Scrumptious recipes at the end of the story allow children to make their own sweet treats to share with their friends.The illustrations by Patricia Saco are delectably appealing and children will love seeing the dinosaurs dressed up for tea time.I recommend picking up a copy of Dina's Tea Time.Editorial Review
