Where Are The Dinos? is the newest entry in Julia Dweck's fantastic collection of children's stories. The illustrator for this book is cartoonist Bob Ostrom who does an amazing job of capturing the images supported by the text. He uses the familiar cartoon balloons to display  what the character is thinking and saying. A little dog goes to the zoo and asks the tour guide why he doesn't see dinosaurs at the zoo. His questions mirror what a young child would be thinking. Where and how do dinosaurs eat, sleep, shop, vacation, go to school? The rhyming language flows exactly right. Adults and children want to read aloud and answer the questions. I think that even very young children will want to hear this story over and over.
