Description
In this installment of dino competition, meat eaters face off against plant eaters in three high-speed auto events: drag racing, off-road racing, and stock-car racing. Lisa Wheeler's rhymes explore thoughtful questions such as: Which dinosaurs would make the best chasers for support in a desert off-road race? Does T-Rex's king status transfer to the track? And can Diplodocus actually fit inside a stock car? Barry Gott's illustrations bring all the hilarious action to life.

PreS-Gr 2--From drag to off-road to stock-car racing, Wheeler's dinos traverse the circuits, as herbivores and carnivores compete in rhyme time. Gott's bright stylistic art depicts the fierce contests and reflects insider humor as his racers zoom around Pangaea Speedway, flaunting sponsorship logos from Plantzoil, Scale Brite, and Primordial Soup. Happy readers and read-tos will pick up a few racing tips in this zippy entry into a series including Dino-Swimming and Dino-Boarding. And, oh yes, break out your toe-taps and your tutus--this one ends with a teaser for the next episode in the dino-sport lexicon: Dino-Dancing! VERDICT Colorful rhyming fun for car lovers, racing aficionados, and dinophiles.--Patricia Manning, formerly at Eastchester Public Library, NY
