Why read it?
1 author picked Dinosaur on Shabbat as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a favorite of mine and my students. Every preschool child loves dinosaurs, and nothing is more exciting and fun than a dinosaur celebrating Shabbat! Laughter abounds when the silly dinosaur makes mistakes just like the mistakes that the children hearing the book have made at Shabbat. The rhymes have a nice flow that keeps the attention of young listeners.
From Sylvia's list on for Jewish preschool children.
