"The Rebirth of Dino Earth" by Pat Hatt is a fun-to-read kids' book with a valuable morale to the story. A flying saucer comes to Earth, releasing five dinosaur escapees from an alien zoo. The dinosaurs are pretty up-to-date, fashionable characters, in spite of the very long time they've obviously been away from Earth.As the story progresses, another spaceship approaches; this one contains aliens sent to retrieve the escaped dinosaurs. Suddenly the dinosaurs find themselves in trouble again. Will they survive the attempt to recapture them? If captured, will they be returned to the alien zoo, to continue a life in a cage?As a rule, I don't often give 5 stars to a book written for children. The vast majority I won't even rate. I thought this one deserved 5 stars, but was pleasantly surprised when I saw it had so far garnered 29 reviews, and every one was a 5 star review! So apparently other people think highly of this one, too. (Now up to 84 reviews, and still all 5 stars!)"The Rebirth of Dino Earth" is a story many youngsters will enjoy. The text rhymes and the colors used to illustrate are richly saturated. As it ends, the story leaves the readers with a good lesson that will help them in their personal lives. I recommend it.
