My toddler loves dinosaurs he loved this book. Was very easy to keep him engaged since the pictures are so vibrant and colorful to keep your baby toddler readers attention. I definitely will have to keep an eye out for physical copy as I was sent a ebook.

My First Dinosaurs is a vibrant and educational short picture book that my daughter loved exploring with me! We really loved the vibrant colours and I found them to have just the right amount of colouring to engage her.

For obvious reasons I think we would enjoy the physical cloth book even more, and I would pick up the book for my daughter. Little people love tiny cloth books and I think this will sell well!!

I think this would be a great cloth first book of dinosaurs for infants. Great colors. And love that each side is different.

Now I know these books are aimed at very young children, but my 4 year old has additional needs and isn't interested in books at all unless ripping them up counts?
But he loves his dinosaurs and can name most of them upon sight, vso he in particular loved looking at this and enjoyed all the bright colours.

Cute idea with the bright attractive colors. Easy to see with large letters. They dont look as realistic as I expected but the kids like it.

I love the idea behind this!

The images and pictures used are bright and attractive

I had something similar for my daughter when she was younger but this much better!

cute childrens book but sadly my daughter wasn't a fan of it.
the drawings of the animals looked a bit weird looking.
wish it was more true what the animals looked like becuase my daughter kept saying no to this book.
id give it 3 stars

Yes, you too can parade a velociraptor in front of your pre-toddler and get them saying the name with minimal effort. Actually, you can't – which is why products like this are mentally stimulating playthings, tools to get the hands and eyes attuned to using the other mentally stimulating playthings we call books. Now I saw this digitally and cannot quite get a successful mental image of what the product is, and how it turns from a book to a block of things into a "bonus puzzle game", and so all I can report on is what is on the page. And these are fine – yes they have a lot of 70s-influenced colour clashes and design quirks, and a lot of the dinosaurs are wearing just the wrong shade of lipstick, but these books aren't alone in giving prehistory inappropriate colours, and at least this vivid and colourful kindergarten item is doing it for all the right reasons.

These are the friendliest of dinosaurs, brightly coloured, one to a page, prehistoric creatures, baby style!

I received an advanced copy of this thanks to NetGalley and the publishers but the opinions expressed are my own. As my preview copy was an e.book I am unable to comment on the softness of the cloth but the content will make a great first book which can be linked to others in this series. This will make a great gift for my grandson's first Christmas.

Another in the series of 'first' books by Margaux Carpentier. This is a really beautiful book for babies and toddlers, with brilliant dinosaurs illustrations that are bold and engaging. Colours have been chosen very thoughtfully, making these contrasting images and bold designs really captivating. My baby was drawn to it even though we were viewing a digital copy. A brilliant starter book that would be a wonderful gift.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for gifting me this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love the bright colors used for the dinosaurs and the contrast of the backgrounds! The premise of a cube is very clever
