The Christmasaurus Paul Shelley read by Shane Devries illustrator Tom Fletcher author 9780141373539 Books

This is a cute book. My daughter (8) and I really enjoyed it. The storyline is creative and festive. It had a LOT of adorable bits of humor in it. He writes it to the reader which is great. There are some parts I am not so keen on that I feel warrant a warning here for some families- there lot of potty talk about Santa’s big bottom (he does sit on an egg after all). I felt like the way it was said was just to get laughs which my daughter appreciated but I felt we’re unnessary. I don’t really think books NEED to go there to be popular but a lot of modern authors disagree and of course it always gets laughs from kids. Not a deal breaker for sure but other parents or teachers might want to know. Also, the dinosaur is a boy- and the elves only rhyme so they knew he was a boy because of his “thingy” 😳. It wasn’t big deal to my daughter with little brothers but again, thought it deserved a heads up! There is also some violence. My daughter is very scared of stuff but it didn’t bother her. She is use to hunting so that aspect seemed normal I suppose. It is NOT for kids who have lost a parent either as the mother haas died, the dinosaur parents die, and something happens to the dad (who ends up fine). My daughter would recommend.

The Christmasaurus Paul Shelley read by Shane Devries illustrator Tom Fletcher author 9780141373539 Books Reviews

Cute book with Christmas and dinosaurs. I would be hesitant to read it to little, little ones because of some mean behavior, but that is me. I've seen elementary kids and their parents raving about it online (videos, pictures, and posts) so I could very well be wrong.
I read this book with my third grade class. It was a huge hit!

I like to choose novels with characters that the kids can learn from. There were several teachable moments throughout the story that lead to some really great discussions.

This adventure with the Christmasaurus and William kept all 22 students entertained and learning through the those last few long weeks before Christmas break. I highly recommend this story.
This was a fun read. Easy would be great for young readers. The story flowed along a helped you envision the story.
I'm 28-years old and completely okay with letting the world know that this book is absolutely adorable and completely worth the read. It's becoming my new Christmas must read for myself and to read to my little nieces. It's a great story of a boy and his Christmas adventure with a dinosaur. You won't be able to put the book down once you start.
This is a very long but entertaining chapter book. It has a few pictures sprinkled throughout the book but even without the pictures, it keeps my 5 year old entertained. We've been reading a couple of chapters every night. I am pretty sure we will be reading it again next year.
wonderful Holiday book for children,and Adults. Once I started I could not put down.
WARNING!!! This is not for little kids, and one of them gets killed!
Now that I said that, here are some of the character in chronological order (more or less) —

3. Exactly 64,321,031 years ago in the ice age, there were only two dinosaurs left. The Momosaurus and Dadlodocus died, but the dinosaur had an egg named EGG.

10. William Trundle (our HERO) he loved dinosaurs (toys, books, etc.) and has a wheelchair (what a GREAT book idea).

11. Mr. (Bob) Trundle William’s Dad.

24. There are 8 tiny elves (Elvis?), all of whose names start with letter “S”. And the 1st one is Snozzletrump. SnozzleTRUMP?!?!?! Oh my gosh. (Later on, you see SnozzleTRUMP has a handy Crumpet Consumption Graph! Cute! Is that the President, or what?)

28. The EGG again and it lives in the North Pole (you know where).

38. Santa, of course. He is humongous, enormous bottom, fatter than fat Just an OVAL (like an EGG). I think he needs to lose weight [or else!].

58. Finally, Santa hates the egg and names him The CHRISTMASAURUS!

61. There are the Reindeer, of course, but they have NO NAMES. For me, I like
“On, Lipstick! On, Dipstick! On, Pixie! On Dixie!, On, Kramden! On, Norton! On Alice! On, Trixie!”
And how about the one I remember, Rudolph?

69. Brenda (the?) Payne The meanest girl in the whole school — possibly the WORLD. (Hint Brenda throws a snowball like Babe Ruth or Sandy Koufax.)

130. Santa made a stuffed dinosaur named STUFFY! with button eyes and great pictures! I’m in love! (Another “S”!)

158. And then we see “The Hunter” (the man was EVIL) and his hound dog named Growler. (Is that Elvis Presley’s song “Hound Dog”?) Anyhow, The Hunter would shoot the rifle at the Reindeer (I hope not Santa), but that’s too easy even for Growler. And then he sees a real D-D-D-DINOSAUR? “And I MUST have his head on the wall! I’d go down in hunting history. I’d be ... the GREATEST HUNTER OF ALL TIMES.”

Bang! BANG!! BANG!!! And who killed whom? GULP! A wonderful book, BUT not for little kids. O.K..
P.S. — I found this book in 11 different languages (other than English, of course). Are there more?
